About eye care

What is an ophthalmologist?

An ophthalmologist is a medical doctor who specialises in the health of the eyes. They look after the eye as a whole, from everyday problems to conditions that need long-term care.

Seeing an eye specialist means a thorough look at your eyes and a clear explanation of what is found, in plain language.

General information. Please phone the practice to find out which services and treatments are offered.

Common reasons to see an eye specialist

  • Changes in your vision

    Blurred, cloudy or fading sight, or finding it harder to see at night.

  • Pain, redness or irritation

    Eyes that are sore, red, watery, itchy or sensitive to light.

  • Flashes, floaters or shadows

    New spots, flashes of light or a shadow across your vision.

  • Health conditions

    Diabetes, high blood pressure or a family history of eye disease can affect the eyes.

  • Children's eyes

    A child who squints, sits very close to screens or struggles to read the board.
