Coronavirus COVID-19 - As a front line NHS medical provider, our policy is to stay open offering patients our services of eye examinations and supplying glasses. We are currently open for business and will continue to do so. HOWEVER, if you are in isolation, please stay at home as advised. We are taking all steps in controlling the spread of the Coronavirus by wiping down all surfaces in line with advice given by the NHS. If you require glasses we can offer a home delivery service if you are unable to get out.
