Services
Eye Examinations
Our comprehensive eye examinations utilise OCT scanning and Optomap technology to assess both vision and ocular health. These tests detect early signs of conditions like glaucoma and macular degeneration while determining prescription requirements. Patients receive detailed explanations of their results and recommendations for corrective eyewear or further treatment.
Contact Lenses
We specialise in contact lens fittings for various needs including daily disposables, silicone hydrogel, and multifocal lenses. Our optometrists ensure proper fit and comfort while providing ongoing aftercare. We offer trial fittings for advanced lenses like Bausch + Lomb ULTRA ONE DAY with moisture retention technology.
Hearing Care
In partnership with Harmony Hearing, we provide full hearing assessments and custom-built hearing solutions. Services include free trials, digital hearing aid fittings, and lifetime aftercare. Our specialists address high-frequency hearing loss and tinnitus through modern amplification technology.
Colorimetry
This service addresses visual stress through precision tinted lenses prescribed using specialist colorimeter equipment. We assess light sensitivity and reading discomfort, offering coloured overlays and custom tints to improve visual clarity and reduce eye strain during prolonged reading.
Children's Eyewear
We provide durable, age-appropriate eyewear solutions for children including impact-resistant frames and lenses. Our dispensing opticians specialise in fitting glasses for young patients, offering guidance on proper care and adjustment to ensure comfort and correct visual development.
