๐Ÿ‘๏ธ Your eyes deserve a check-up as much as the rest of you. An eye exam can detect early signs of conditions like glaucoma, diabetes, and high blood pressure. The latest OCT technology allows us to carry out a non-invasive test providing 3-D color-coded images of the retina. This helps with early detection and treatment of ocular disease that may develop without any noticeable symptoms.

The OCT scan uses a laser (without radiation) to gain high resolution images of the layers in your retina and optic nerve.

Book yours today and protect your vision for tomorrow.

Here is a list of signs to looks out for, and if you have any concerns, make an appointment today.

1. They rub their eyes a lot (except when they are tired, which is normal)
2. They are clumsy or have poor hand/eye co-ordination
3. They hold books or objects close to their face, or sit close to the TV
4. They close one eye, frown, or screw their eyes up when reading or watching TV
5. They seem to be struggling at school
6. They have overly watery eyes
7. They complain about blurred or double vision, or have frequent headaches
8. They avoid reading, writing or drawing
9. One eye turns in or out โ€“ this may be apparent when they are tired

Did you know:
โ€ข Children donโ€™t need to be able to read to have an eye test
โ€ข Children wonโ€™t always know if something is wrong with their vision, so donโ€™t assume everything is normal
โ€ข For children under 16 years of age, eye tests are free under the NHS
