Home Visits

We’re proud to announce our recent investment in state-of-the-art portable equipment, enabling us to provide the same high-quality NHS eye examinations you’d expect in practice—right in the comfort of your own home.

Our domiciliary kit includes a VR headset for visual field testing, a handheld slit lamp for detailed assessment of the front of the eye—including conditions like dry eye—and a binocular indirect headset, which allows us to view the back of the eye in 3D, offering greater accuracy than the typical 2D methods commonly used.

This advanced setup ensures we can perform a comprehensive, clinic-standard eye exam in your home, without compromise. Whether due to mobility issues, health concerns, or personal preference, our home visit service brings accessible, professional eye care to you.

We’re committed to delivering exceptional care—wherever you are.

To provide some clarity, here are a few examples of conditions that may apply:

• Cognitive impairment
• Dementia
• Severe arthritis
• A diagnosed mental illness
• A condition affecting mobility
• Short-term memory issues
• A medical condition requiring ongoing medication (e.g., oxygen)
• A temporary illness, such as vertigo, that makes leaving the home difficult
• A temporary condition preventing you from leaving the house unaccompanied
• A medical professional has advised you not to leave home without assistance
• A diagnosed mental health illness

Feel free to get in touch with us for more information and guidance.

If you are no longer able to attend the practice due to disability or illness we can arrange to visit you in your home.

All NHS eye examinations are FREE of charge in Scotland.
