Expert Eye Care Using the Latest Technology
Sweeney’s Opticians, with our comprehensive eye examinations go far beyond simply checking if you need glasses. With over 40 years of combined experience, our highly qualified optometrists provide thorough eye health assessments using state-of-the-art technology to protect your vision and detect potential problems early.
What’s Included in Your Eye Examination
During your appointment, we conduct a complete evaluation of your eye health and vision. We’ll update your prescription for glasses or contact lenses if needed, and carefully screen for common eye conditions including glaucoma, cataracts, macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy.
One of our most advanced services is OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography) scanning – a non-invasive imaging technique that creates detailed 3D cross-sections of your retina. This technology allows us to detect eye diseases at their earliest stages, often before you notice any symptoms, giving you the best chance for successful treatment.
Specialised Testing Available:
- Colour Vision Testing: Essential for career guidance, school assessments, or diagnosing acquired colour vision deficiencies
- Children’s Eye Tests: Age-appropriate examinations tailored to young patients’ needs
- Driver Vision Reports: Official assessments for NDLS licence applications and professional driving requirements
