Your eyes tell us more than you think!
An eye examination isn’t just about how well you can see, it’s also an important window into your overall health. During your eye appointment, your optometrist can spot early signs of a number of health conditions, sometimes before you notice any symptoms at all.
These include:
🔹 High blood pressure – changes to the blood vessels in your eyes can be one of the first clues.
🔹 Diabetes – early signs of diabetic eye disease can often be detected in the retina.
🔹 High cholesterol – deposits or narrowing in the tiny blood vessels of your eyes can sometimes reveal raised cholesterol levels.
Regular eye examinations don’t just protect your vision, they protect your health too. 💙
We can even follow up with your GP for you should our examinations raise any concerns.
If it’s been more than two years since your last visit or you’ve noticed any changes to your sight, book your next appointment today with our friendly team at Duignan Phelps Optometrists.

Keep your eyes safe this Bonfire Night!
Fireworks and sparklers are all part of the fun but it only takes a second for a stray spark to turn the night from dazzling to dangerous. 💥
Always remember:
Hold sparklers at arm’s length
Keep them away from faces and eyes (especially little ones!)
Never let children handle fireworks or sparklers unsupervised
Even a tiny spark can cause serious eye injuries, so enjoy the show safely and protect your sight. 🎇
A little local note — Ellen’s super musical husband and daughter will both be playing at The Wheatsheaf Bonfire this Saturday, so if you’re heading down, give them a cheer!
Stay safe, have fun and have a brilliant Bonfire Night from all of us at Duignan Phelps Optometrists.

🎃 Trick or Treat for Your Eyes?
This Halloween, give your eyes a treat – not a trick!
Your eyes work hard every day so here are a few simple ways to keep them healthy and happy

🍎 Eat well for your vision
Load up on leafy greens, colourful veg (including your Halloween pumpkin, which is full of anti-oxidants!) and omega-3-rich fish to help protect against eye conditions like macular degeneration and dry eyes.

👀 Have regular eye examinations
Even if your vision feels fine, eye examinations can detect early signs of problems long before you notice symptoms.

👓 Wear your prescribed glasses or contacts
They’re tailored just for you, helping reduce strain and keep your vision crystal clear.

❄️ Soothe tired eyes
Cooling gel patches or a gentle warm compress can help relieve eye fatigue after long days or screen use.

Your eyes deserve a treat this Halloween, not a fright!

Book your eye examination today with Duignan Phelps Optometrists in Newport.

👀 Eye Spy reveal time!
Yesterday we shared a close-up and here it is: The Buttercross in Newport!
Also known as The Puleston Cross, it was built in the 14th century and has seen markets, meetings and centuries of Newport history.
Next time you pass, take a closer look — the details tell a story all of their own!
Just like this historic landmark, when it comes to your eye care, we want you to see all the details.
Book your eye examination today to keep your vision as sharp as your history knowledge.

Eye Spy with my little eye… something historic in Newport!

Because when it comes to both Newport history and your eye health, seeing the details really matters!
