Specialist eye care,
all under one roof.

Beyond routine sight tests, our clinical team provides a range of specialist services to protect and support your vision at every stage of life.

Children's eye tests
Gentle, friendly eye examinations for children. We monitor healthy vision development and detect issues such as squints or lazy eye early, when they're easiest to treat.
Myopia control for children
Short-sightedness often progresses through childhood. We offer myopia control options designed to slow that progression, helping protect your child's long-term eye health.
Glaucoma monitoring
Ongoing monitoring for those at risk, including eye pressure measurement and visual fields assessments to detect and track changes over time.
Specialist contact lenses
Expertise in complex and specialist fits, including rigid gas permeable (RGP) lenses, for prescriptions and conditions that standard lenses can't accommodate.
Specialist dry eye care
Dedicated assessment, treatment and advice for dry, gritty or irritated eyes — helping you find lasting relief with a plan tailored to you.
Onward referrals
Where specialist hospital or medical care is needed, we refer you on promptly and clearly — so you're always in the right hands at the right time.

Protecting your
long-term sight.

Glaucoma often develops without obvious symptoms, which is why regular monitoring matters. Whether you've been referred back from the hospital or have a family history, we provide thorough, ongoing assessments to track your eye health over time.

Eye pressure monitoring
Accurate measurement of the pressure inside your eye — a key indicator clinicians use to assess and monitor glaucoma risk.
Visual fields assessment
A detailed test of your peripheral vision to detect subtle changes early — often before you would notice them yourself.
Ongoing tracking
We keep a clear record of your results across visits, so any change is spotted and acted on without delay.

Specialist contact lenses

When standard lenses
aren't enough.

Some eyes and prescriptions need a more specialist approach. We have the expertise to fit complex and rigid gas permeable (RGP) lenses, providing clear, comfortable vision where off-the-shelf options fall short.

Lasting relief from
dry, tired eyes.

Dry eye is common, but it shouldn't be something you simply put up with. We assess the underlying cause and build a treatment plan around your symptoms and lifestyle — so you can find real, lasting comfort.

Thorough assessment
We look closely at the health of your tear film and ocular surface to understand exactly what's causing your symptoms.
Tailored treatment
From targeted products to in-practice options, we recommend the right approach for the severity and cause of your dry eye.
Practical advice
Clear guidance on day-to-day habits and routines that help keep your eyes comfortable between visits.
