[H3] PRESCRIPTION SUNGLASSES
Prescription sunglasses are a great way to complete your eyewear repertoire. If you need vision correction, they give you the freedom to enjoy the outdoors without missing out on the view! Great quality sunglasses also provide vital UV protection, minimise eyestrain, and help protect the delicate eye area from wrinkles and skin cancer.

[H1] EYECARE
Our optometrists will always take the time to get to know you and discuss your individual eye care needs, providing a professional and tailormade test. Once a series of checks have been carried out to assess your vision and eye health, they will discuss any results with you and be happy to answer any questions you may have. Following your examination, if it is needed, they will then take you through to speak to one of our friendly dispensing team who, over a freshly brewed coffee, can talk through any needs and wants you have to provide a spectacle solution that works for you.
​
​We provide both private and NHS eyecare, and are very pleased to offer an enhanced eye health examination upgrade to NHS patients. All of our patients also have the option to join our care plan which makes looking after all of your eyecare needs extremely easy, for your complete peace of mindBOOK APPOINTMENT
[H2] YOUR EYE HEALTH
As part of your eye examination your optometrist will look at the health of your eyes. We are able to use the latest technology with our Optomap and OCT machines to take ultra wide imaging and deep down layered scans of the backs of your eyes – this lets us assess your eye health in much more detail and depth than ever before, helping us to potentially address problems before they become, well, problems!
​
Your optometrist can also advise on how best to look after your eyes depending on your individual needs, from the importance of wearing sunglasses to protect against UV to discussing any family history of eye issues, to advice surrounding dry eye or screen use. Your eyes are important and we’re here to help you look after them the best you can.BOOK APPOINTMENT
[H3] WHAT TO EXPECT IN YOUR EYE EXAMINATION?
In total your eye examination will take around 30-40 minutes whilst your optometrist checks your vision and eye health, and chats to you about any issues or visual requirements you have. If you need to spend time with a dispensing optician afterwards you should allow yourself about another 30-40 minutes for this.
​
It is helpful if you can bring your current spectacles and sunglasses with you to your appointment.BOOK APPOINTMENT

[H1] CONTACT LENSES
Contact lenses are a simple and safe way to correct the vision of almost everyone. At Hollands we listen to your needs and wants and look at your lifestyle so we can discuss contact lens options that will work best for you.BOOK APPOINTMENT
[H2] CONTACT LENS ASSESSMENTS
Before you start wearing contact lenses, we need to confirm that you can wear them safely, find the right type for you and calculate your prescription. All of this takes place during your contact lens assessment. With one of our optometrists, you will have your eyes tested and measured while also being able to discuss how you would like to use contact lenses. After the assessment, your optometrist will be able to tell you whether you can wear contact lenses safely and comfortably and which type will be best for you.BOOK APPOINTMENT
[IMG: Contact Lens Aftercare Solution]
[H3] THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF CONTACT LENSES
There are many different lens designs and materials available including dailies, monthlies, as well as lenses that correct for astigmatism or presbyopia. Your optometrist will discuss your needs and wants, as well as looking at factors like your eye health and prescription to make a recommendation that’s well-suited for you.BOOK APPOINTMENT
[IMG: Teresa Front of house receptionist on the phone with a patient]
[H4] AFTERCARE & ADVICE
With our aftercare service, we can see how you’re finding your contact lenses and check up on your eyes. At aftercare appointments, your optometrist will talk with you about your lens wear, confirm that your eyes are healthy, and ensure your prescription is still correct. These appointments also offer a great opportunity to learn about new developments in contact lens technology and to ask any questions you have about your lenses.
And it’s even easier for our care plan patients as the plan includes all and any contact lens checks that you may need, plus a discounted rate on your contact lenses. CARE PLAN

[H1] CHILDREN
Being able to see clearly is vital for children’s well-being and development. Eyesight is perhaps our most precious sense and protecting it helps children learn about the world and interact with other people. This is why you can always expect the highest level of service from us when it comes to children’s eye care. We treat every child as an individual, considering their specific eye care needs and always aim to make them feel comfortable and relaxed whether they’re having their eyes tested or picking out a new pair of frames.BOOK APPOINTMENT
[H2] KID'S EYE TESTS
We offer free, detailed eye tests for all kids under 16 (and teenagers aged 17 and 18 in full-time education) through the NHS. With our thorough examinations, we’ll learn everything we need to know about your child’s eye health and vision. Every test is specialised for different age groups and we pay attention to the smallest details to help catch any eye problems early on.BOOK APPOINTMENT

[H3] GLASSES FOR CHILDREN
When it comes to a fashionable pair of new frames there’s no reason even our youngest patients should miss out. We have colourful and stylish eyewear to suit every age group. With the help of our knowledgeable dispensing team, you’ll be able to find frames that not only look great but feel great as well.BOOK APPOINTMENT

[H4] MYOPIA CONTROL
Myopia, or short-sightedness, is a condition that causes blurry distance vision. It most commonly starts in children aged between 6-13 years old and it can progress as the child, and therefore the eyeball, grows. It can happen to anyone, but there is a higher risk if one or both parents are also myopic.
​
In recent years there has been a huge increase in the amount of people becoming short-sighted, and it is predicted that by 2050 it will affect half of the worlds population.
​
As well as genetic factors, things like increased time indoors and prolonged time on screens have been shown to have an impact on myopia.
​
And although there is no cure, in recent years there has been much advancement in ‘myopia control’ treatments which can help slow down the progression of myopia.
[H5] TREATMENT
Being able to slow down the progression of myopia can mean your child doesn’t develop a strong prescription requiring spectacles on a permanent basis, and needing thicker corrective lenses. Being very shortsighted can also increase the risk of ocular conditions such as retinal detachments, glaucoma, or myopic maculopathy which can all potentially lead to serious vision loss. So it’s great that we now have options to help reduce these risks.
​
​We offer two types of myopia management care. We can fit a specially designed soft daily contact lens or spectacle lens (or indeed a combination of the two) designed to reduce myopia progression by about 59%. Both are worn in just the same way as normal contact lenses or spectacles, but their innovative design works to help slow down short-sighted progression. Following a sight test your optometrist will discuss the options with you and your child so you can decide how best to proceed.BOOK APPOINTMENT
