Eye Examination

With over 15 years experience of examining eyes, Scott provides a thorough, professional eye examination to all patients.

Scott is a member of The British College of Optometrists and registered with the General Optical Council, and regularly attends continued education and training courses.

Eye examinations are recommended at 1 to 2 year intervals or as advised by Scott.

Diabetics, Glaucoma sufferers and family history of Glaucoma should be seen yearly.

The main functions of the eye examination are:

1) To assess vision and prescribe spectacles / contact lenses ONLY if required.

2) To assess how well the eyes work together (Binocular vision)

3) To assess the health of the eye, possibly the most important aspect of the examination as a lot of general health conditions can be picked up from the eye, e.g. Diabetes, Raised Blood Pressure, Cholestorol, Glaucoma.
