In order to provide you with sound eye health advice, specific to your needs, we take the time to get to know you. While some of our questions may seem unrelated, they really help us to understand you and how we can best look after your eyes. Bringing knowledge of your family and own past medical history is beneficial. Our standard eye examinations not only assess your need for an optical correction such as glasses or contact lensesbut routinely include checks for diabetes, glaucoma and of your macula. If required, further investigations may include visual field testing of your optic nerve function and peripheral vision, OCT scans and retinal photography of your eyes. Our experienced therapeutically endorsed optometrists are able to write prescriptions for eye medications to keep the maintenance of your eye health an easy process.

We pride ourselves on taking the time to deliver knowledge so that you understand more about your eyes. To assist you further we have collected a few informative links to help you understand common eye conditions.

Glaucoma; a common eye condition where irreversible degeneration of the Optic Nerve (the main nerve in the eye) results in the irreversible loss of peripheral (side) vision. This may be caused by an increase in the pressure within your eyes, but not always. Read more below:
