Services
Eye Examinations
Our comprehensive eye examinations use advanced technology like 3D OCT scanning and Optomap imaging to detect eye health issues early. Appointments last 45-60 minutes, allowing thorough assessments of visual acuity and ocular health. The service includes intraocular pressure testing, visual field analysis, and retinal imaging when required, with options for NHS and private patients.
Contact Lenses
We offer specialist contact lens fittings for complex prescriptions and eye conditions. Our services include trial lenses, aftercare support, and access to premium brands. The iCare Plan provides replacement lenses and discounted solutions, with expertise in orthokeratology for myopia management and scleral lenses for dry eye patients.
Hearing Assessments
Available at three locations, our audiology services include comprehensive hearing evaluations using modern diagnostic equipment. We provide hearing protection solutions, tinnitus assessments, and support for selecting hearing aids. The service focuses on improving quality of life through better hearing clarity and communication.
Myopia Management
Specialist clinics address progressive short-sightedness in children and young adults. Treatment options include orthokeratology lenses worn overnight to reshape the cornea, multifocal contact lenses, and atropine therapy. Regular monitoring tracks effectiveness, with appointments tailored to individual progression rates and lifestyle requirements.
Dry Eye Clinic
Advanced dry eye treatments include Blephex lid exfoliation, intense pulsed light therapy (E-Eye), and customised lubricant regimens. We conduct detailed tear film analysis to identify underlying causes, offering long-term management strategies tailored to environmental factors and individual physiology for improved ocular comfort.

Report
Finally I have happy eyes and a happy nose! ... I have spent a fortune at other opticians being guided towards frames that are not suitable for me and when I went to the Optical Studio I had 'semi-permanent' dents in my nose and was suffering headaches. Expertly executed under Covid limitations, I was given the time and guidance needed and now have glasses that are super light and comfortable and suit me perfectly, not to mention gorgeous! (I will update this in a month or so as to the effect on my nose dents but they already feel so much better.)

Always very friendly, very professional and very helpful. The eye test is never rushed and anything you don't understand is always explained further if needed. AND always a fab range of frames to choose from

Very friendly professional service. Having been to several other opticians in the past I would rate them the best. Glasses were ready as promised with no issues.
