Eye Examinations
Our comprehensive eye examinations utilise advanced technology including Optomap retinal imaging and OCT scanning to assess both vision and overall eye health. The process includes digital eye charts, tonometry for glaucoma screening, and visual field analysis. Each examination concludes with personalised recommendations for eyewear or further treatment based on individual lifestyle needs.
Contact Lenses
We offer comprehensive contact lens assessments and fittings for all types including daily disposables, monthly lenses, toric lenses for astigmatism, and multifocal options. Our optometrists provide trial lenses and guidance on proper care routines. We stock a wide range of solutions and maintain current knowledge of the latest lens technologies for optimal vision correction.
Bespoke Frames
Our practice features over 30 premium eyewear brands including Gucci, Ray-Ban, and Dolce & Gabbana, with regular updates to maintain contemporary styles. We offer specialist frame selection assistance to ensure optimal fit and visual performance. The collection includes options for computer use, sports, and children's eyewear with both NHS-funded and private choices available.
Retinal Scanning
Using state-of-the-art Optomap technology, we provide ultra-widefield retinal imaging that captures 82% of the retina in under half a second. This non-invasive procedure enables early detection of conditions like macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy. The digital records allow for precise monitoring of retinal health over time, facilitating preventative care strategies.
Children's Eye Care
We provide comprehensive eye examinations for children with NHS funding covering examinations, lenses, and frames. Our staff specialise in making young patients feel comfortable during assessments. We offer private frame options for those seeking alternative styles, with expert guidance on selecting durable, age-appropriate eyewear that ensures proper visual development.
