The end of the year is a great time to check in on your eye health.
Even if your vision feels fine, an eye exam can detect issues early - from changes in prescription to eye health conditions like glaucoma or cataracts.
Book your eye test before the year ends and start the new year with clear, healthy vision

• people aged 40 or over with a family history of glaucoma

• people aged 70 or over

• people with diabetes

An eagle eyed patient just sent us this photo of an old Ipswich bus sponsored by the practice many years ago. We’ve been in the town 102 years but I have no idea when this photograph could have been taken - can anyone help to date it?
