Services
Comprehensive eye tests
Our detailed eye tests assess vision clarity, eye health, and potential conditions. Using advanced equipment, we detect early signs of diabetes, glaucoma, and macular degeneration. Ideal for all ages, these tests ensure accurate prescriptions and proactive health management.
Ortho-K treatments
Orthokeratology uses specialised contact lenses to reshape the cornea overnight. This non-surgical solution corrects myopia and slows its progression, particularly effective for children and active adults seeking freedom from daytime eyewear.
Emergency eye care
We provide same-day treatment for eye injuries, infections, and allergies. Our therapeutic optometrist can prescribe necessary medications, ensuring prompt relief and preventing complications from sudden eye health issues.
Children's eye tests
Tailored assessments for children detect vision problems affecting learning and development. We check eye coordination, focusing ability, and screen for conditions like amblyopia, ensuring optimal visual skills for academic and physical activities.
Myopia management
Our specialist programs slow myopia progression in children using evidence-based methods. Through Ortho-K lenses and lifestyle guidance, we reduce the risk of severe eye complications associated with high myopia later in life.

Outstanding and friendly service from a local family business. Great range of frames, there was so much to choose from and the staff were able to provide excellent advice about how to pick frames that suited my face and features. I have gone here for the last few years and will continue to do so.

Been seeing Dr Marryanne for years, she always takes the time to patiently explain any changes and discuss options and next steps after my annual eye exams. They stock a great range of frames and have also kindly ordered special requests for me.

We have purchased several pairs of glasses here, and the service was helpful and attentive. We also had a warranty issue that was resolved fairly; great after sales support is a mark of a great business. We will be back when we need another pair of glasses. Thanks iSee Optical.

Really caring practitioner. Took her time to check my eyes carefully (because my family has history of glacuoma)
