Our FAQs delve into common concerns and best practices to ensure your eyes remain in optimal condition. Dive in to learn more and ensure you’re taking the best possible care of your vision.
How often should I have an eye examination??
Regular eye examinations are essential for maintaining good eye health. We recommend adults have their eyes tested every 1-2 years. However, if you experience any sudden changes in vision or eye discomfort, it’s crucial to see an optometrist immediately.
What are the common signs of eye problems?
Common signs include blurry vision, frequent headaches, difficulty seeing at night, double vision, eye strain, and seeing floaters or flashers. If you experience any of these symptoms, it’s essential to book an eye examination.
How can I protect my eyes from screen fatigue?
Screen fatigue or digital eye strain is common in today’s digital age. To reduce its effects, follow the 20-20-20 rule: every 20 minutes, take a 20-second break and focus on something 20 feet away. Adjusting screen brightness, increasing text size, and ensuring proper posture can also help.

What is the difference between polarised and non-polarised sunglasses?
Polarised sunglasses reduce glare from surfaces like water, roads, and cars, offering clearer vision in bright conditions. Non-polarised sunglasses reduce overall brightness but don’t necessarily eliminate glare.

Our experienced team is here to help! We offer style consultations to find the perfect frame that complements your face shape and personal style.
What are the benefits of high index lenses?
High-index lenses are thinner and lighter than regular lenses, making them more comfortable, especially for higher prescriptions.

Typically, glasses are ready for collection within 10-14 working days, and contact lenses may vary based on the type and prescription.
