Services
Eye Examinations
Our comprehensive eye exams assess vision and eye health using advanced techniques like retinoscopy, tonometry, and slit lamp exams. We evaluate visual acuity, intraocular pressure, and retinal health to detect conditions such as glaucoma, macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy. The process includes detailed consultations to address patient concerns and prescribe corrective lenses when needed.
Contact Lenses
We offer tailored contact lens solutions, including daily disposables, monthly, and two-weekly options. Our specialists conduct thorough fittings to ensure comfort and suitability, with guidance on insertion, removal, and care. We also provide varifocal contact lenses for multifocal vision correction and manage complex cases like astigmatism with toric lenses.
OCT Scanning
Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) scans provide 3D images of the retina and optic nerve, enabling early detection of conditions like glaucoma and macular degeneration. This non-invasive test complements standard eye exams by revealing subsurface abnormalities undetectable through traditional methods. Results are stored for longitudinal monitoring of eye health changes over time.
Varifocal Lenses
Digital freeform varifocal lenses offer seamless vision correction for near, intermediate, and distance viewing. Customised to individual prescriptions and lifestyle needs, these lenses reduce peripheral distortion and improve clarity. We utilise precision manufacturing to ensure optimal performance for tasks like computer use, driving, and reading.
Myopia Management
Our myopia control programs target children and young adults to slow the progression of short-sightedness. Interventions include specialised contact lenses, orthokeratology, and lifestyle advice. Regular monitoring tracks efficacy, with adjustments to treatment plans based on OCT and refraction test results to preserve long-term visual acuity.

Questions
What does an OCT scan involve?
An OCT scan uses light to create 3D images of your retina and optic nerve, taking over 1,000 cross-sectional images in seconds. It is non-invasive and painless.
Do I need an OCT scan if I have diabetes?
Yes, OCT scans detect subsurface retinal changes earlier than standard diabetic screening, aiding in managing diabetes-related eye conditions.
How long does an eye examination take?
A standard eye test lasts 20-30 minutes, with additional time for OCT scans or complex contact lens fittings.
What is included in the eye examination fee?
The fee covers comprehensive testing, including retinal photography, visual acuity assessments, and intraocular pressure measurements.

Friendly, efficient, polite staff made the whole process stress free free from start to finish. The optometrist explained what they were doing and why throughout my eyetest. An optical assistant was more than happy to give advice re choosing my new glasses listening to my wants and needs thus enabling me to make the right choice. They did this in a lovely relaxed and pressure free way. Robert Marshall Eyecare care for the individual!

My daughter recently visited for her optician appointment. The appointment was very thorough and the lady was so kind, asking questions, reassuring me as a parent and explaining things. We then returned for her glasses to be fitted, excellent service again. I would definitely recommend. Thank you.

I highly recommend Robert Marshall Opticians. The best for miles. I don't think a you will find a better Optician than Mr Marshall. I have a small swelling inside my eye, so painful. I phoned the Opticians and was told I could come in the same day and Mr Marshall would have a look at it. He was extremely busy and still found the time to examine my eye and told me exactly what it was and what treatment I needed. He is such a gentleman and explains everything so thoroughly. The staff are and so very nice and friendly and make you so welcome. Thank you so very much Mr Marshall, I'm very grateful.

Great service provided by an excellent team. I completely trust Robert with my eyecare; he is extremely thorough, always takes time to explain-especially if there is a problem-and one feels nothing is too much trouble. Totally recommend this practice.
