Eye Examinations

Our comprehensive eye examinations use advanced diagnostic technology to assess vision quality and detect early signs of ocular disease. The 40-minute appointments include retinal imaging, intraocular pressure measurement, and binocular assessment. We tailor tests to individual needs based on age, medical history, and lifestyle requirements while following national guidelines for recommended examination intervals.

Contact Lens Fitting

Specialist contact lens fittings address complex prescriptions including astigmatism and presbyopia. We offer daily disposables, monthly lenses, and extended-wear options using modern materials for comfort and eye health. Our optometrists provide thorough assessments to ensure proper fit and educate patients on safe handling and maintenance practices for optimal vision correction.

Designer Eyewear

Extensive collections of designer glasses and sunglasses combine fashion with optical precision. Our dispensing opticians advise on frame selection based on facial structure, prescription requirements, and lifestyle needs. We stock leading brands across multiple price points while offering expert adjustments and repairs for existing eyewear.

Same-Day Repairs

Urgent eyewear repairs and replacement services address broken frames or damaged lenses. Our technicians can often complete repairs within hours using on-site equipment while providing temporary solutions when immediate fixes aren't possible. We prioritise urgent cases without compromising the quality of craftsmanship in our optical products.

Ocular Health Screening

Advanced diagnostic screening detects early signs of glaucoma, cataracts, and macular degeneration. Digital retinal imaging captures detailed photographs for comparative analysis during subsequent visits. Our optometrists explain test results thoroughly and recommend appropriate follow-up actions while maintaining detailed patient records for longitudinal monitoring.

We recommend annual exams for children, diabetics, and those over 70. Adults aged 16-69 should have tests every two years unless advised otherwise by our optometrists.

After years of using chainstore opticians on the High Street and being generally unimpressed with the service they offer I searched my area for an alternative. Thankfully I came across Kensington Heights. As soon as I entered the store Bijal and Fabia made me feel welcome and at ease. Bijals diligence, professionalism and competence were immediately obvious. The aftercare is exceptional and I have no hesitation in recommending Kensington Heights.

I cant recommend Bijals services enough - hes professional, extremely thorough and really cares about providing the best for his customers. I came to switch from monthly contact lenses to dailies and Bijal took a long time ensuring they were perfect for me. Thank you!

I couldn't have had a nicer experience with Kensington Heights Opticians. Bijal and his assistant Fabia are so kind, helpful and professional. Nothing was too much trouble and everything was explained clearly. I recommend;)

Once again had a very good experience with Kensington Heights. Bijal really takes his time when carrying out the eye tests and explains exactly how eyesight has changed over time and what the new requirements are. The new prescription lenses are perfect and I'm very happy with my new glasses, especially as over time I've gone from just needing them for reading and computer work to wearing them pretty much all the time. It's been a smooth transition.

We have been going to Kensington Heights Opticians for 6 years now and they are always incredibly friendly, professional and knowledgeable. We started going when my daughter was 8 and over time the whole family has now used they services fir one reason and another. I have started wearing glasses myself. I would definitely recommend and Mr Shah is experienced, thorough and always puts us at ease.
