Services
Eye examinations
Our comprehensive eye examinations assess visual acuity, eye health, and potential underlying conditions. Using advanced diagnostic equipment, we detect early signs of eye disease and provide tailored recommendations. The examination includes detailed analysis of refractive errors and binocular vision, ensuring optimal vision correction for patients of all ages.
Contact lenses
We offer specialist contact lens fittings including orthokeratology for myopia control. Our team provides training on proper insertion, removal, and care. We stock various lens types to suit different prescriptions and lifestyles, with ongoing support to ensure comfort and eye health during use.
Designer frames
Our dispensing opticians guide patients through selecting frames that complement facial features and lifestyle needs. We offer a wide range of designer and affordable options, ensuring proper fit and comfort. Expert advice helps patients choose durable, stylish eyewear that meets their vision correction requirements.
Myopia control
Specialist myopia control services use orthokeratology lenses to slow progression in children and young adults. We provide customised treatment plans with regular monitoring. This non-surgical approach reshapes the cornea overnight, offering clear daytime vision while managing prescription changes.
Emergency services
We handle eye emergencies including sudden vision changes, foreign objects, and ocular trauma. For after-hours emergencies, patients receive guidance to appropriate NHS services. Our team provides immediate assessment and treatment to prevent complications and preserve vision.

I saw Daven July 2021 him and his team are SO helpful and the reason anyone should go there. He took time to call me back in for a 2nd visual fields report test to confirm if my eyes were anything to do with headaches i was receiving. He really took time to explain everything, reassured me and talked me through the process. What a guy! He even sent me a mail with the reports. I wouldn't go anywhere else but Optitech! Thank yo!

My family and I changed over from Specsavers as we wanted somewhere closer to home and with a more family like feel. Optitech is a brilliant optician, Mr Patel is super professional and you really do place a lot of trust in his views and assessment. Recently I had to have my sight test with my toddler next to me, the whole team worked on keeping him occupied whilst I had my test done! They made me feel at ease. Thank you again.
