As part of the NHS we were pleased and proud to remain open during the second and third national lockdowns. We're working within NHS policies and we're looking forward to seeing you whenever you want us, for all of your eye care needs including eye health emergencies and eye examinations. Please be assured we're strictly adhering to NHS operating and safety procedures, and having regular Covid-19 tests. With the new variant adding extra concern we want to reassure you that the team are very experienced in safeguarding you within our practices.
The team are still wearing the appropriate PPE, and working within the Government's current social distancing guidelines. Hand sanitizer is available at several points throughout each practice, and your time here is managed to keep everyone safe.
All of our usual services are available and our opening hours are as usual. As we are operating in a primary healthcare setting masks are required if you're over the age of eleven, unless you are exempt. This is in line with advice from the Government, the NHS and our professional regulators. If you struggle with mask wearing or need any other advice, phone your branch for queries, our friendly team will be happy to help!
Contact Lens Patients
Supplies of your lenses have continued as normal all the way through the pandemic. You can safely visit your preferred practice to collect your supplies or for check ups. If you wish to arrange postal delivery please call us.
Eye Examinations
In June 2020 we set up new clinical systems for eye examinations and ocular emergencies, so we can provide all of our usual services safely. We are still working within these strict guidelines. If you're worried about your vision or eye health, call your branch for help.
Eyewear
Our dispensing rooms are stocked with beautiful eye wear, and our patients can still take frames home for opinions from friends and family. The Dispensing team wear appropriate PPE, and all frames are sanitized after handling. If you bring your frame in for adjustment or repair, we will sanitise it on your arrival.
