Please note this assessment is not covered by the NHS and is chargeable before the assessment starts on the day.
What is involved. We do make a charge for this service of £70 which includes all below and usually 2 appointments
- First of all it important to make sure your eyes work as a team so we check the muscles in the eyes to see how they are tracking together.
- Check for colour vision deficiency
- Colour overlay assessment – this is the main part and allows us to find if you suffer from ‘visual stress’
- A full eye muscle work up for both far and near to see how the eyes are performing.
- Comprehensive discussion of the summary of the assessment and any advice that we can offer
As part of the visit we will use a few computer based apps to help see how your eyes perform dynamically.
We have an Eye Tracking app to help see how your eyes work when looking across a page.
This will give us so much more information about your eyes than a simple eye exam. We can use this information to plan out what is happening and how we could improve it.
Here is a sample of the benefit that even Gary our Optometrist found when doing the test. A whopping 38% improvement , not only in speed of reading but far less fatiguing.
This is not a full eye examination — you need to have had a sight exam done at an Opticians within the last 3 months and bring in the prescription so we can verify it.
