EYE CONDITIONS

There are a huge range of different eye conditions we can experience at some point in our lives. As an experienced optometrist we are trained to identify and diagnose medical conditions related to the eye.

​

Regular (every 2-years at least) and thorough eye examinations are the best way to detect eye conditions. Often problems with the eyes are discovered too late. As optometrists there are few things more frustrating than a patient losing vision to something that would have been preventable if a comprehensive eye examination had been performed. So please, even if you feel there are no problems with your eyes or vision - have an eye examination. You go to see your dentist, right? If something goes wrong with your teeth you can get false ones and still eat. If something goes wrong with your eyes you can get false ones, but you can't see with them! Also, you've got loads of teeth! You only have 2 eyes!
