The majority of eye conditions don’t have any symptoms, so one or more of your service users could have a visual problem without even knowing it.

Glasses Delivered To Your Home

Should one of your residents require eyewear they’re in for a treat. As well as supplying a large range of spectacles, our optician also carries a wide variety with them when he makes visits.

When it comes to keeping your residents’ vision in great health you could also be making your job easier. Visual problems can cause accidents including falls and bumps; most of which can be prevented with the right knowledge.

Home Visit Experience

• We have an extensive experience in working with elderly patients including those with dementia, mental health problems and learning difficulties and we fully understand and have a sympathetic approach that is required.
• We understand the need to safeguard older, more vulnerable patients who live in care homes, as their needs are different from those of other older people.
