Sight Testing
An Eye Examinaion is a vital health check, We understand that your eyes are unique
A comprehensive eye examination at Chase eye care Opticians takes around half an hour by one of our friendly, fully qualified Clinician. We will tailor the examination to your eyes specific needs, during which our Clinician will assess all aspects of your ocular health and your eyesight requirements. We don't perform just quick eye tests.
Every eye examination is unique, although many parts are common for all.A relaxed, confidential, in depth discussion with the Optometrist of your current eyesight requirements, and other health and lifestyle issues which may be relevant.
It's not simply to see whether you need visual correction like Spectacles/Contact Lenes or not.
A thorough eye examination will not only reveal the health of your eyes, it will also provide important information about your general health.
In addition to checking for cataracts, glaucoma, colour and field of vision, our Optometrists will look for signs of other health problems, such as high blood pressure and diabetes. In fact, an eye examination can often pick up these problems before the symptoms become apparent to you or a doctor, so you can benefit from early treatment.
Make sure you see an Optometrist if :
- You have trouble reading.
- You have headaches
- You have Eye aches/strain
- Your sight is blurred, if you are seeing double or if you see spots or floaters.
- One or both of your eyes hurt or if you feel pressure in your eye.
- You can't see things at the side like you used to.
Whilst we charge for our highly professional eye examinations, there are a number of concessions available. Free NHS eye examinations are offered to children under 16, full-time students up to 19, the over-60s, people with diabetes or glaucoma, people over 40 with a family history of glaucoma and those on low incomes.
