Vital health checks

Expert eye care 

 

Your examination will include vital health checks. Our expertise and equipment can detect early signs of conditions such as glaucoma, cataract, diabetic retinopathy and age-related macular degeneration (ARMD) to name but a few.

We offer digital retinal photography – this enables us to look at the condition of the back surface of the eye. These images can be saved on your digital file so that we can compare the images on each visit enabling us to detect any changes or potential problems.

Professional expertise

Expert eye care

 

There is no longer need to use the “puff of air” test to check the pressure in your eye. We use modern instrumentation to check pressures to ensure a comfortable visit to our practice.

Your sight test will include refraction to establish if a prescription is required to correct your vision. If no prescription is required, we will advise of this. If a correction is recommended, we can guide you in your choices with our professional expertise.

We also participate in the NHS funded Optometry First scheme which allows us to assess and treat certain minor eye conditions.  If you suffer from irritable eyes, sore eyes, running eyes, red eyes, eye or eyelid infections, ingrowing eyelashes, foreign bodies in the eye, sudden loss of quality of vision or any other eye problem such as flashes or floaters, we are here to help you, with an early appointment.

"The most thorough optometrist I have ever dealt with"

"Jessica Hickling is by far the most thorough optometrist I have ever dealt with in over 50 years of optician appointments. She provides very clear explanations of all tests/examinations & results and is very friendly, while maintaining a professional demeanour at all times. All other staff are also friendly, helpful and professional. I have only good things to say about everyone at Norwood & Perrin. 10/10"

"A real credit to the community"

"We visited Norwood Perrin for our daughter’s eye test and glasses, and the service was outstanding. The team were friendly, professional and went above and beyond to make her feel comfortable and involved in the process...The whole experience was smooth, respectful, and reassuring from start to finish. Highly recommended for anyone looking for an independent optician that combines clinical expertise with personal care. A real credit to the community.
