Eye Examinations
Our comprehensive eye exams last 45 minutes, focusing on both vision correction and eye health. Using advanced tools like OCT scans, we detect conditions such as glaucoma and macular degeneration early. The process includes detailed discussions about your lifestyle and visual needs, ensuring tailored recommendations for glasses or contact lenses.
Contact Lenses
We offer daily, monthly, and two-weekly disposable contact lenses, including varifocal options. Our experts provide fitting services and ongoing support to ensure comfort and clarity. All packages include a full care guide, with options tailored to allergies, computer use, and active lifestyles for optimal visual performance.
OCT Scans
Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) creates 3D images of eye layers, enabling early detection of conditions like glaucoma up to four years sooner. This non-invasive scan takes seconds and is recommended for patients over 25 or those with diabetes and family eye disease history, providing critical baseline data for monitoring changes.
Varifocal Lenses
Our varifocal lenses provide seamless vision from distance to near, ideal for presbyopia. Using concentric circle or blended designs, they eliminate the need for multiple glasses. We offer the latest digital freeform technology for enhanced clarity, particularly beneficial for computer work and multifocal visual demands.
Children's Eyewear
We provide free children's glasses, including our exclusive Chico range, designed for durability and style. Our advisors specialise in fitting young patients, offering lightweight frames and impact-resistant lenses. Regular eye tests are recommended to address myopia progression, ensuring clear vision for learning and play.

Very efficient, almost exactly on time. Good professional service. Not too much pressure to buy new lenses or glasses but they did try.

I've been using Ashtons for around 8 years now and I've always had great service and my prescriptions for both glasses and contact lenses have always been spot on.

Ashton Opticians is absolutely brilliant! They have helped me recently and over the years will all kinds of concerns related to my eyes and vision, namely working with me to get my glasses right and getting me to see! I can't say enough about their amazing level of service, attention and how nice they all are. Ashton goes the extra distance to make sure you are not only comfortable in the office and with their service, but they clearly care about you and your vision concerns and do it right. I cannot say enough great things about them and recommend them to anyone who wants an amazing, knowledgeable and caring vision service!

I have been a patient with Ashtons for several years and am always impressed by the service I receive from all staff. In particular the care and support I have received from Parita throughout my recent cataract repair from referral to aftercare was in my opinion outstanding. Thank you!
