Eye Examination
Our comprehensive eye examinations combine digital retinal photography with visual field assessments to detect conditions like glaucoma and macular degeneration. Our optometrists provide detailed analysis of eye health while checking visual acuity and prescription requirements. The enhanced examination includes OCT scanning for detailed retinal imaging, crucial for early detection of age-related eye diseases.
Myopia Control
Specialist treatment for childhood myopia progression using multifocal contact lenses and binocular vision training. Our accredited practitioners develop personalised management plans incorporating outdoor activity guidance and visual hygiene education. Regular 3-6 monthly reviews monitor effectiveness while ensuring safe, controlled visual development through evidence-based intervention strategies.
Dry Eye Treatment

We address environmental and physiological causes through tear film analysis and meibomian gland assessment. Treatment combines specialised cleaning procedures with dietary advice on omega-3 supplementation to improve natural tear production and ocular surface health.

Report
After an initial consultation with Bill and trial of glasses we decided to try vision therapy for our son (aged 10). The week of vision therapy was quite intensive and very tiring for my son but Bill was always very friendly, professional and supportive. We followed this up by carrying out daily eye exercises at home. We are a year on and the difference in my son is quite remarkable. Bill could see this with various eye tests but we see it in his reading ability and he no longer has sore eyes while trying to read.,

Im very pleased with the service received from Jenson & Ledingham. A very through eye exam every time Ive come and every thing has been explained in detail. Plus I love my new glasses! Extreme sanitising measures make me feel safe in their environment.
