To all our great patients/clients - past and present
I hope that you and your loved ones are well.
I am glad to say we are now open.
Practice Opening times:
The plan is to run clinics on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday - 9.00am to 4.30pm, although the practice will be open Monday to Saturday (9.00am to 5.30pm).
Appointment slots have been temporarily extended to 45 minutes for an eye examination, 60 minutes for an eye examination and contact lens check, and 30 minutes for children. This is to allow time to clean the instruments and change any PPE that is required.
Booking an Appointment:
We will be able to book all routine private examinations.
We are following the NHS Standard Operating Procedure for NHS sight tests. This currently means we can see you for an NHS examination if 1. you are eligible for an NHS sight test, and 2. you are having visual symptoms affecting your work or lifestyle, or your spectacles are damaged. If you have no symptoms then we will be able to invite you for a sight test later in the year.
Other Changes:
As a practice we have always taken the safety of our patients seriously. With Covid 19 that responsibility is more important than ever, and we would like to explain some of the measures we are taking to keep you safe during your next visit.
If you would like to book an appointment please call us on 01279 757767 and we will gladly book this for you.
Thank you for your patience, rest assured your eyecare is our priority and we look forward to hearing from you soon.
With best wishes

- All visits to the practice will be by appointment. Please call us to book an eye examination, dispense, or repair. This will allow us to control the number of people in the practice at any one time.
- As you would expect we have increased the frequency that the practice is cleaned and disinfected and we are also ensuring that all common touch points are cleaned in between patients, including frames.
- Our team will be wearing the appropriate level of PPE as advised by Public Health England.
- We would also ask that when attending an appointment that all patients/clients wear a face mask/covering. No gloves please.
