Comprehensive eye health exams.

Many of us recognise the need to visit our dentist and doctor for regular health checks but we are generally less aware of the importance of regular eye examinations.

Many changes to eye health take place gradually and can often go unnoticed without obvious symptoms. Prevention is the best cure and early detection of eye disease allows for treatment before permanent loss of vision or even blindness occurs.
