Services
Eye Examinations
Our comprehensive eye examinations use advanced diagnostic technology to assess visual acuity and eye health. Qualified optometrists conduct thorough assessments suitable for all ages, including specialist children's eye tests. The 30-minute appointments include detailed analysis of vision correction needs and early detection of ocular conditions.
Glasses
We offer an extensive selection of designer and value glasses frames with precision lenses tailored to individual prescriptions. Our dispensing opticians provide expert advice on frame selection, lens technology, and visual ergonomics. Clients benefit from our price-matching guarantee and comprehensive aftercare services for all spectacle purchases.
Contact Lenses
Our specialist contact lens consultations include fitting assessments and suitability evaluations for various lens types. We provide ongoing support for soft, rigid gas permeable, and specialist lenses. The service includes comprehensive aftercare and emergency replacement assistance for established patients.
Myopia Control
This specialist service addresses progressive short-sightedness in children and young adults. We employ evidence-based approaches including orthokeratology and multifocal contact lenses. The programme includes regular monitoring and tailored interventions to slow myopia progression while maintaining clear vision.
Retinal Photography
Our retinal photography service captures detailed images of the eye's posterior structures for early disease detection. This non-invasive screening aids in monitoring conditions like glaucoma, macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy. Digital records enable precise tracking of ocular health changes over time.

Nov 15, 2023 Report
I called in with an irritated eye, and the receptionist promptly scheduled me for a same-day appointment. Feeling anxious, I was met with kind and reassuring staff. The Optometrist prescribed eyedrops, which effectively relieved my discomfort. I'm thoroughly satisfied with the level of service provided.

I have been a patient here for many years. I always have excellent service from the staff. The Opticians are brilliant! I have recommended them to many friends as they operate in several towns in this area. I use the Ely branch. Thank you all.
