It is generally recommended that adults have a regular eye examination every two years as part of their healthcare. In some circumstances that interval may be shorter if, for example, there is health reason for a shorter interval, such as diabetes or a family history of glaucoma. Some people may qualify for an NHS eye examination, such as the over 60s and some with, or with a family history of, certain medical conditions, and some may require a private eye examination with our optometrists. Either way, an eye examination plays a huge part in making sure that you and your eyes stay healthy. Your eyes can be a valuable window to assist in detecting the presence of other asymptomatic medical conditions even where there may be no apparent concern about vision itself. Retinal fundus photography (taking pictures of the back of your eyes), tonometry (measuring the internal pressure of your eyes) and visual field assessments, all using specialist bespoke equipment, will also carried out as part of your examination if the optometrist assesses this to be advisable and, better still, at no additional cost.
