Emergency Appointments

If you're experiencing any eye discomfort, pain or eyesight issues, we offer Free NHS emergency appointments 5 days per week. We will always try to see patients as quickly as possible.
YOUR EMERGENCY APPOINTMENT

When you come in for your emergency appointment, we will check your vision and run a short eye test to assess the problem you are having. From the results we will be able to find you a solution to the problem which may or may not include suitable medication or treatment.

If you’re experiencing eye discomfort, pain or eyesight issues, we offer emergency appointments.
