Services
Eye Examinations
Our comprehensive eye examinations use state-of-the-art technology to assess vision health and detect potential issues. Qualified optometrists conduct detailed assessments of visual acuity, eye health, and prescription requirements. The examination includes retinal scans and intraocular pressure measurements to identify conditions like glaucoma and macular degeneration.
Hearing Aid Fittings
We offer expert hearing aid selection and fitting services using the latest digital technology. Audiologists conduct thorough hearing assessments to determine appropriate device specifications. The service includes custom programming, real-ear verification, and follow-up adjustments to ensure optimal performance in various listening environments.
Microsuction Ear Wax Removal
This safe, non-invasive procedure removes excess ear wax using medical-grade suction equipment. Trained audiologists perform the treatment in a clinical setting with specialist microscopes for precision. The method effectively clears blockages while minimising discomfort and risk of ear trauma compared to traditional syringing.
OCT Scans
Optical Coherence Tomography provides high-resolution cross-sectional images of the retina for early disease detection. The non-contact scan captures detailed 3D images of retinal layers to identify conditions like diabetic retinopathy and glaucoma. Results enable precise monitoring of ocular health over time.
Paediatric Eye Tests
Specialised examinations for children from age 3 using age-appropriate testing methods. The service identifies vision development issues like amblyopia and accommodative disorders. Practitioners experienced in paediatric care ensure comfortable, engaging assessments to establish healthy visual development.

Excellent service. Very efficient eye test and then they fixed my broken glasses (from a large high-street competitor) free of charge whilst I chose a new frame. Highly recommended.

I wish when I was a youngster that the opticians my parents took me to were half as good as this one. My little boy was referred to the hospital after some abnormalities with his school eye test. The hospital referral naturally was going to take a while so the hospital recommend Tombs and Allen in the mean time. Considering he needed eyes drops and all sorts of unusual contraptions (that a 5 year old may find intimidating) Brodie the optician was better than outstanding. She made him feel so comfortable and her natural calm and bubbly nature I could tell really put my usually nervous boy at ease

The opthalmology department, at QA hospital, told me that this was the right place to take one of my children, for tests and spectacles. That was 25 years ago and we, as a family, wouldn't go anywhere else.
Consistently top quality people, advice, equipment, service and products.

Impressed. First visit yesterday, based on a friend's recommendation. Have always used "high street" opticians before for my annual eye test. The eye test was very thorough and I was pleasantly surprised to be told I didn't need a new pair of specs because my current ones are o.k. No "hard sell" here to buy a new pair. Previous high street opticians always told me I needed a new pair when I wasn't convinced there was always a necessity. I have no hesitation in recommending this independent optician practice.

We have been using Tombs & Allen since they were recommended by a hospital opthalmologist for our children when they were babies. Service is always personal and friendly, especially with children but also with adults.
