PRIVATE EYE EXAMINATIONS

Standard Eye Examination (30 mins) 

Our Standard Eye Examination checks your vision and overall eye health. It includes a visual acuity and prescription check, an assessment of eye movement and coordination, a glaucoma pressure check, and an Optomap Scan—a quick, painless wide-angle image of your retina that helps detect and monitor eye conditions, usually without dilation. 

This exam ensures your eyes are healthy, your vision is clear, and provides peace of mind 

Advanced Eye Examination (50 mins) 

Our Advanced Eye Examination is our most thorough eye test, offering a complete assessment of your eye health. It includes everything in our Standard Eye Examination, plus an additional OCT scan, giving our expert optometrists a detailed, in-depth view of your eyes.

Enjoy total peace of mind knowing your vision is protected and you’re giving your eyes the highest level of care.

 CONTACT LENS EXAMINATIONS

If you currently wear contact lenses, or are considering trying them, we recommend booking an eye test first to ensure your prescription is up to date. This is also the perfect time to let us know you’re interested in contact lenses, so we can arrange a dedicated contact lens consultation.

This separate appointment includes:

• A detailed assessment of your eye surface, eyelids, and tear film using high-magnification equipment

• Trial contact lenses, with full guidance on safe insertion and removal

• A follow-up fitting review to check comfort, fit, and vision
  
  

Please note that a contact lens prescription can only be issued as part of this dedicated contact lens appointment.
