At MW Phillips Opticians, we are committed to providing exceptional eye care services to our community. We are proud to partner with the NHS to offer a range of eye care services that ensure everyone has access to the highest quality vision care. Here’s an overview of the NHS services available at our optician practices.

NHS Eye Tests

Free Eye Examinations:

We offer free NHS eye tests for eligible patients. Regular eye exams are essential for detecting vision problems early and maintaining overall eye health.
Eligibility includes children under 16, those under 19 in full-time education, individuals over 60, and people with certain medical conditions or on specific benefits.

Comprehensive Eye Examinations:

Our eye exams go beyond just checking your vision. We conduct a thorough assessment of your eye health, checking for conditions like glaucoma, cataracts, and macular degeneration.
Early detection of eye conditions can lead to more effective treatment and better outcomes for your eye health.

NHS Funded Glasses

Affordable Eyewear:

If your eye test indicates that you need glasses, the NHS provides funding for a range of frames and lenses.
We offer a variety of stylish and durable frames that cater to all ages and preferences, ensuring you find a pair that you love and that fits your needs.

Children’s Glasses:

We understand the importance of good vision for children’s development and learning. Our range of NHS-funded glasses for children includes fun and durable options that kids will love.
Our friendly staff will help your child choose frames that fit well and make them feel confident wearing their glasses.

Specialized NHS Services

Diabetic Eye Screening:

Regular eye exams are crucial for individuals with diabetes to monitor for diabetic retinopathy and other complications. We offer NHS diabetic eye screening services to help manage and protect your vision.
Early detection and treatment of diabetic eye conditions can prevent serious vision problems and maintain eye health.

Glaucoma Screening:

Glaucoma is a serious condition that can lead to vision loss if not detected and treated early. Our comprehensive eye exams include glaucoma screening to ensure any signs of the condition are caught early.
Regular screening is particularly important for those with a family history of glaucoma or other risk factors.
Contact Lens Assessments:

For those interested in wearing contact lenses, we provide NHS-funded contact lens assessments. Our optometrists will determine the best type of lenses for your eyes and lifestyle.
We offer a variety of contact lenses, including daily disposables, monthly lenses, and specialty lenses for astigmatism and other conditions.
