An eye examination is not just a check to measure your sight and get a spectacle prescription. An eye examination also helps to detect eye disease, such as glaucoma or cataract. The eye examination can also detect early signs of general disease such as high blood pressure, diabetes and high cholesterol.

Healthy, well looked after eyes can make a big difference to your all round well-being and the best way to maintain this is through regular eye examinations. Regular monitoring of your eyes will provide you with the peace and reassurance that your eyes are healthy. Our optometrists will use specialist equipment and provide you with advice on your lifestyle and how to maintain this precious gift of sight.

Eye problems can develop long before the symptoms can be seen or felt. A routine eye examination will not only ensure that your sight is functioning to its optimum level but it will help spot the presence of diseases early, ensuring that you get the correct and timely treatment if necessary. The tragedy is that so many people lose their sight simply because they were not aware that a problem was developing.
