Q) How often Should I have a sight test?
A) You can often underestimate how important a regular eye examination is. Everyday situations such as using a computer, watching television and driving can all put a strain on your eyes so it is important to have a regular check-up. An eye test can help detect eye conditions like long or short sightedness and eye disease before you notice the effect on your sight. Below 40 years of age, we recommend that you have a sight test at least every 2 years. Above 40 or if there is any history of eye disease in your family, you should have a test every year.
Q) What's involved in a David Clulow eye examination?
After asking you a few questions on your vision, general health, family, work and lifestyle in general, our opticians will examine your eyes for the following:
- vision quality
- unaided and aided (with any glasses or contacts you already use)
- eye muscle performance and health
- internal eye health, ideally using our state of the art Retinal Scanner*
- front of eye health - eye fluid pressure
* Retinal screening is available at a supplementary charge of £10
Further test for depth perception, colour vision and visual field may also be performed if required. All these test are carried out using the very best in eye examination technology and with your David Clulow optician providing step by step explanations, so that you know what’s involved at each stage.
