World Diabetes Day, 14 November

Today is World Diabetes Day, a global reminder of the importance of eye health for those living with diabetes. Regular eye examinations are essential because diabetes can affect the small blood vessels at the back of the eye, sometimes without any noticeable symptoms in the early stages.

Our clinical team is trained to detect diabetic eye changes as early as possible and we have vast experience in doing so. Using advanced imaging technology, we can monitor the health of your eyes and work closely with your medical team to help protect your sight.

If you or a loved one has diabetes, please ensure your routine eye examination is up to date and that they see an optometrist with experience in managing diabetic retinopathy. Early detection is key to preventing vision loss.

Book online or call the practice to arrange your next appointment.

Thinking of completing your Halloween look with spooky costume contacts? Stop right there! 🛑

In the UK, all contact lenses, including "zero-power" fashion lenses, are medical devices and should only be supplied by a registered optician. Buying them from unregulated sources is incredibly risky.

The Danger? Poorly fitting, non-sterile lenses can cause:

•Painful eye infections
•Corneal abrasions (scratches on the eye)
•Ulcers
•Potentially permanent sight loss

If you would like contact lenses, come and speak to us first! We can ensure they are safe and properly fitted for your eyes 👁️

Got a holiday planned to escape the cold this autumn or winter?
Our Dispensing Optician, Fran, recently took her beautiful new WOOW sunglasses on a trip to Greece ☀️
Even if you’re not heading abroad soon, UV protection is still important all year round.
With the sun getting lower at this time of year, your eyes can be exposed to more direct UV radiation. Protecting your eyes with sunglasses can help reduce the risk of eye conditions linked to UV exposure ⚠️

Book with us online or call us on 0131 556 7836 if you’d like to look at new sunglasses 🕶️

Do your eyes feel uncomfortable?
If your eyes often feel gritty, sore, watery, or tired, you could be experiencing dry eye.
It is a common condition, especially in Scotland where wind, weather, and screen time play a role.

We offer tailored advice and treatments to help you find relief and keep your eyes comfortable day to day. We’ll work to find you a long-term solution.

Help keep your children’s eyes healthy with regular eye tests, a healthy diet, limiting screen use and wearing sunglasses.

Extended screen time is associated with an increased risk of developing and worsening myopia (nearsightedness) and the onset of dry eye in children. Limit your child’s screen use and balance with time spent outdoors.
