Celebrating World Glaucoma week – Free Retinal Scans March 2015!

Glaucoma is a group of eye diseases that cause progressive damage of the optic nerve at the point where it leaves the eye to carry visual information to the brain.

If left untreated, most types of glaucoma progress (without warning nor obvious symptoms to the patient) towards gradually worsening visual damage and may lead to blindness. Once incurred, visual damage is mostly irreversible, and this has led to glaucoma being described as the “silent blinding disease” or the “sneak thief of sight”

To celebrate World Glaucoma week March 8th – 14th we we are providing complimentary retinal imaging with eye examination appointments until March 31st.

Our digital Retinal imaging uses high resolution imaging systems to look for clues about general health and pinpoint signs of disease, such as Glaucoma macular degeneration or systemic conditions such as diabetes. See our page on retinal imaging for more information.

There are limited appointments available, so please book as soon as possible to avoid disappointment.
