How important is an eye test?

However, according to research, sight is the sense that people fear losing the most, and it is therefore essential to arrange an eye test in Preston. Our optometrist carries out various eye exams in Preston and the surrounding areas, so that conditions like Glaucoma, AMD, and cataracts can be detected early and prevented.

How often should I have an eye test?

I’m diabetic and have my eye screening, do I still need an eye test?

Yes is the simple answer. Your local independent opticians in Preston can detect early signs of Diabetic Retinopathy with an examination of your eyes. The earlier these changes are detected, the earlier they can be treated to prevent any sight loss. An eye test at the opticians and the Diabetic retinopathy screening should both be done. You can book your eye exam in Preston, online or by calling our office on 01254 937322.

Do children need to have an eye test?

Eye testing at home and in-store is arguably even more important for children, as their eyesight is so crucial to their learning and development. If a child is having trouble with their vision, they will not be able to focus on their schoolwork, and their academic performance is bound to suffer as a result. If you think your child might be having trouble with this, it’s best to contact us and arrange a home eye test in Preston.

My child has special needs, can they have an eye test?

Of course. All children should have regular eye tests. A child with special needs or learning difficulties may have a higher need for visual correction and checkups due to the possible underdevelopment of their eyes. The earlier they are seen, the better the treatment options will be. If you are worried about your child’s vision or have noticed any worrying signs, contact us for a mobile eye test near Preston.

What type of glasses are best for me?

Following on from the eye test, if you would like some new glasses, the friendly optometrist will talk through the best options for yourself or your loved one. You may either need distance, reading, varifocals or even bifocals, depending on your lifestyle and mobility. Rest assured, you will receive the best advice from our optician in Preston.

How can you help if I have a visual impairment?

  • Handheld light magnifiers
  • Big button telephones
  • Large print books and newspapers
  • Audiobooks
  • Talking watches
