So what is a mobile optician? No it is not an optician continuously on a mobile phone. A mobile optician is an optician who comes to you with all the necessary equipment so you can have an eye test in the comfort of your own surroundings.
Being a mobile optician allows us to see patients in their own homes, care homes, residential centres and even corporate offices.
Home Eyecare is a mobile optician that provides home eye tests for patients who are housebound or unable to attend a high street optician. You may be entitled to a free NHS funded home eye test.
Our opticians also carry a wide range of spectacles and frames, along with all the professional equipment required to carry out a full eye examination.
Here are the benefits of using a mobile optician:
1. Quality Eye Care
We strive to provide the highest quality eye care. As a mobile optician, we work to the same clinical standards you would expect from an independent or high street optician.
Our opticians take the time to understand your needs and go above and beyond their duty of care for every patient.
2. The Patient Comes First
The needs and wellbeing of our patients are always our priority. We treat all patients with care, honesty, respect, dignity and empathy. You can trust us with all your home eyecare needs.
3. Flexible and Prompt Appointments
Appointments are arranged to suit your needs. We aim to see patients within a few days of receiving a call, with no long waiting lists.
4. Spectacles and Frames at Home
Our mobile opticians carry a wide selection of spectacles and frames, ranging from budget options to designer frames at competitive prices.
We explain all available lens options, including single vision, bifocal and varifocal lenses along with suitable lens coatings and why they may benefit you.
5. Experience and Professional Registration
Our mobile opticians have over 30 years of experience providing eye care for elderly patients and those with physical or mental health needs.
We regularly carry out eye tests in private homes, care homes, residential homes, day centres and corporate settings. All opticians are fully registered with the General Optical Council.
6. Multilingual Support
Our opticians are multilingual and able to communicate in several languages.
If communication is difficult for any reason, we use a variety of methods to ensure a comfortable and effective eye test.
7. Ongoing Aftercare
Most frames supplied come with a manufacturer’s warranty. If you experience any issues with your spectacles, our team is always available to help.
Now that we have explained the benefits of using Home Eyecare as your mobile optician, please contact us if you or someone you know is housebound or has difficulty attending an optician.
