Patients with certain conditions require more specialist treatment and careful monitoring of the condition of their eyes. Those diagnosed with diabetes or glaucoma, and other ocular conditions are welcome to visit our facilities where our expert optometrists will take you through all aspects of prevention, treatment and care.
If you have been diagnosed as diabetic you will need a yearly screening to detect any changes in your sight. We take a digital photograph of the back of your eye in order to detect any diabetic related changes.
This involves a more comprehensive field test and we use a Goldman Tonometer (to measure the pressure inside your eye) this is the gold standard of equipment used in hospital eye departments. We also perform a dilated pupil examination of the retina.
This is available for people displaying the signs of a higher risk of glaucoma, you will be discharged by the local eye department into our care for monitoring of the condition.
We conduct direct referrals to patient choice NHS call centres for referral to a hospital eye department for a cataract assessment and possible operation.
