What is the difference between a normal eye examination and health checks?

A health check includes sudden vision loss, painful red eyes, severe infections, eye injuries, flashes or floaters, and chemical exposure. If you experience any of these symptoms, it’s important to seek urgent professional care to prevent further complications.

What happens during a health check appointment?

During your appointment, our specialist optometrist will conduct a thorough examination of your eyes, using advanced diagnostic equipment to assess the issue. They will provide a detailed diagnosis and recommend the most appropriate treatment to address your condition.

Can I have a health check appointment if I don’t have a referral?

Yes, you can book an appointment without a referral. If further specialist treatment is needed, our team will guide you on the next steps and arrange any necessary follow-up care.

Will I receive treatment during my appointment?

Your optometrist will provide immediate guidance and treatment options based on your diagnosis. This may include prescription medications, eye drops, or further medical intervention if required.

Is this a walk-in service?

No, we operate by appointment only and do not accept walk-ins. If you need immediate advice, please contact NHS 111.
