Why Preventative Eyecare?

Eyesight is precious and such an important part of our overall wellbeing. In addition to checking your eyesight, it is vital to maintain strong eye health in order to support your eyes as you age. 

Some common eye conditions that are easily detectable during a routine eye test include:

• short/long-sightedness, astigmatism
• eye muscle dysfunction
• focussing difficulties
• macular degeneration
• glaucoma
• cataract
• dry eye
• moles and UV damage
• hereditary eye conditions
• diabetic retinopathy

Even though chronic eye disease is the main cause of vision loss^{^}, the good news is that more than 80% of all vision loss is preventable or curable^{^} through a routine eye test. 

Routinely look after the eyes that look after you.​
