Expert Eye Tests for Adults – Protecting Your Vision and Eye Health

Your eyesight is priceless. At Susan Hilton Opticians, we provide thorough yet comfortable adult eye examinations designed to protect your vision and overall eye health. For the cost of just a few cups of coffee per year, you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your eyes are being cared for by trusted independent opticians.

Why Regular Eye Tests Matter

Your eyes are constantly changing, and many eye conditions develop gradually without obvious symptoms. That’s why we recommend adults book an eye test at least every two years. Regular examinations allow us to monitor any changes, detect early signs of eye disease, and manage your eye health effectively.

What to Expect at your Adult Eye Test:

  • Here we identify common eye conditions such as Dry Eye, Cataracts and Glaucoma, as well as some general health conditions such as Diabetes.

  • Here we’ll ask you general questions about your vision and visual demands. The Optometrist will assess your vision to identify if a prescription is required. Following this, we will cary out additional check including colour vision, eye health and visual fields (if required).

  • We’ll take you through the results of your examination and discuss whether glasses or a change to your prescription is required.

  • Depending on the results, we may recommend an OCT Scan.

  • Should you require new glasses, our Dispensing Optician will guide you through the many wonderful styles and fabulous brands on offer. We will discuss your age, lifestyle, occupation and other visual demands such as hobbies that glasses may be needed for.

    From here we will explain which lenses will be most beneficial for you and together we can ensure your visual demands are achieved.

    If you already have frames you wish to use, we can supply lenses to fit, and prescriptions from elsewhere are welcome.
