Is your child struggling to see the board at school? Squinting at the TV? Holding books or tablets very close? 👀

They could be short-sighted (myopia) — and the good news is, we can help.

At Brady Opticians, we specialise in children’s eye care and myopia management. Early detection is key, and regular eye exams can make a real difference to your child’s vision, learning, and confidence.

✨ Signs your child may be short-sighted:
• Sitting very close to screens
• Complaining of headaches
• Difficulty seeing distant objects clearly
• Squinting or rubbing their eyes

We offer thorough children’s eye examinations in a friendly, relaxed environment — and if your child is short-sighted, we’ll talk you through the best options to manage it and protect their long-term eye health.

Clear vision supports brighter futures. 💙

Book your child’s eye test today and let’s keep their world in focus.

What is Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD)?

Age-related macular degeneration, often called AMD, is a common eye condition that affects the macula – the part of the retina responsible for sharp, central vision. This is the vision we use for everyday tasks like reading, recognising faces, driving, and watching TV.

AMD usually develops gradually and is more common in people over the age of 50. While it doesn’t cause total blindness, it can make central vision blurred or distorted, which can have a big impact on day-to-day life.

There are two main types of AMD:
Dry AMD – the most common form, which develops slowly over time
Wet AMD – less common but more serious, as it can cause rapid vision loss

Early signs can include needing brighter light to read, blurred or distorted vision, or difficulty recognising faces. In the early stages, AMD may not cause noticeable symptoms at all – which is why regular eye examinations are so important.

Although there’s currently no cure for AMD, early detection and the right management can help slow its progression and protect your vision.

If you have concerns about your eyesight, or a family history of AMD, our team at Brady Opticians is here to help with expert advice and comprehensive eye examinations.

👁️ Looking after your vision starts with an eye test.

👁️ Glaucoma: know the signs 👁️

Glaucoma is often called the silent thief of sight because it can develop without noticeable symptoms in the early stages. As the condition progresses, symptoms may include:

• Gradual loss of side (peripheral) vision
• Difficulty seeing in low light
• Blurred or hazy vision
• Seeing halos around lights
• Eye pain or headaches (in some cases)

Because vision loss from glaucoma is permanent, early detection is crucial. Regular eye examinations can identify changes in eye pressure and optic nerve health before your sight is affected.

At Brady Opticians, our comprehensive eye exams help safeguard your long-term vision.

📅 Book your eye test today and take a proactive step in protecting your sight.
