1 in 5 children have an undetected eye problem, often accompanied by warning signs such as sitting too near to the television, or holding a book close up.
Children can have their eyes tested at any age.
We recommend testing children as early as possible because poor vision can lead to learning problems.
The earlier a problem is detected the higher the chance of successful treatment, children's eyes are fully developed by the time they are eight years old so it is important to correct any problems before then.

The OHT (Ocular Hypertension) monitoring scheme has recently been established to allow those diagnosed with OHT to be closely monitored by their community optometrist.
Ocular Hypertension (OHT) is a condition where there is elevated IOP (intra ocular pressure) within the eye without any signs of optic nerve damage, visual field defect or other pathology that could explain high IOP.
The eye contains fluid which is in a constant cycle of being produced and then draining away.

Most cataract operations today are performed under local anaesthetic as a day procedure.
After our thorough eye examination we can advise if you require referral for surgery.
