What is an eye test?
Never had an eye test? It’s not as scary as you think!
We will do a series of tests to make sure that your eyes are healthy and working well. If not we will discuss your tailor-made solution, and help you choose the best frame for you!
An eye test is a simple and essential procedure for assessing eye health. During the test, we check for common vision problems such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, and early signs of more serious conditions such as glaucoma and macular degeneration.
We use our new smart technology, Retinal Photography, to ensure a thorough and accurate test, helping you make informed decisions about your eye care.

"Heather/Errol & Thabby oh my, what a team & furthermore, as there's no longer any service in this God-forsaken country of ours & EVERYTHING being blamed on the Coronavirus, 2 find these 3 people @ yr Benmore Mall branch, quite a miracle. Nothing is 2 much 4 them & every "thank u" from any/all of the clients is ALWAYS followed by "u're welcome". In fact i believe a camera should be placed in the shop 2 show the world how a business should be run! So very grateful 4 the 3 of them & keep it up - Mrs June Smith."

"Gersha is a highly-skilled and professional Optometrist. She explains all the test procedures thoroughly and remains on-hand to suggest frames that I would never have even considered! She takes Covid-19 protocols seriously and made me feel at ease from the get-go. The store also has an amazing variety of frames ranging from budget to luxury and all face shapes and sizes. The best part - I had 2 pairs of prescription glasses ready within 2 days! Thank you for the great service on every level."
Always friendly and my optometrist of choice since I moved to the south.
