Eye Examination
Our optometrists provide more than just eye tests
Our fully qualified optometrists will conduct a thorough eye examination to establish the standard of your eyesight and the health of your eyes. We’ll look for early signs of cataracts, glaucoma and other conditions. Problems such as diabetes, high blood pressure and vascular disease can also be detected, as the eye can give clues to general health as well as eye conditions.
The optometrist will advise you if any vision correction will be needed, or whether a new prescription is required. You will be given a written report, if necessary a prescription, and advised when your next eye examination will be due. If signs of any condition or general health problem are detected, we may carry out additional eye tests, which may lead to a referral to your doctor or an ophthalmologist for further investigation.
You may find that you are entitled to a free National Health Service Eye Examination. Many groups of people (such as under 16s, under 19s in full time education and over 60s) are entitled to a free NHS Eye Test, if not the cost for the eye test is £29. Call today or visit on of our optician branches (branch locator below) to book your professional eye test.
