Home eye tests for people with diabetes
For people with diabetes, regular eye tests are a crucial step in protecting your eyesight.
Whilst your diabetic eye screenings focus on detecting diabetes-related conditions, an eye test allows us to optimise your vision and check your overall eye health.
With our home service, you can relax and enjoy the test from the comfort of your own sofa.
