  2. Clinician arrives to carry out the test: Our clinician arrives at your home with their portable testing equipment and carry out a full eye or hearing examination, just like the one you'd have at a high street store, but in the comfort of your home.
  3. Results: They will clearly explain the results to you straight away and discuss any issues or updates to your prescription.
  4. If needed, choose your glasses or hearing aids: Choose from a wide range of frames or hearing aids for all budgets and styles. You can try on as many glasses as you like.
  5. Delivery: Once you've chosen, we'll arrange for your new glasses or hearing aids to be made for you and delivered to your door.

Can I get a free NHS eye test?

Free NHS home eye tests are available for those who can't visit an optician alone due to health or mobility concerns and meet the NHS criteria. Many of our customers qualify for NHS-funded eye tests for reasons such as:

  • being 60 years old or older,
  • being diabetic,
  • having glaucoma or being at risk (for instance, due to a family history of the condition),
  • being registered as partially sighted or blind.

Don't worry if you're not sure, our friendly team can check eligibility for you. Just click the button below, complete the form and we'll give you a call back to explain all the options.

If NHS funding isn't available for you, private tests are available for just £60.

Can I get a free hearing test?

Yes, our home hearing tests are free. 

First, we’ll examine the health of your ear canal and outer ear. Then we’ll measure your level of hearing. 

Should you need, we can help you find the best hearing solution, before providing free fitting and aftercare. Prices start from as little as £1500 per pair.
