We use the latest technology to quickly establish the state of your vision and the health of your eyes.

Included as part of a standard eye examination we use retinal screening to look in far greater detail at the health of your inner eye and identify a range of potential conditions. We are committed to providing the very best quality when it comes to eye tests and dedicate sufficient time to all patients to ensure the very best in eye care.

A standard eye test lasts for approximately 20 minutes unless the optician feels the need to carry out further tests. The optician uses a range of tests tailored to your individual needs, such as a visual fields test which is a subjective measure of central and peripheral vision and how sensitive the vision is in different parts of the visual field. This helps doctors to find certain types of injuries and disease, like glaucoma. From your eye test through to finding the perfect frames and lenses for clear, comfortable vision, we will take the time to ensure that all aspects of your eye care are expertly looked after.
