Children's eye examinations
Children don't always realise they're having problems with their vision, and they may not be able to explain when something doesn't look quite right. Regular eye examinations help us check that their eyes are developing as they should and can identify any changes before they begin to affect school, hobbies or everyday life.
Our children's eye examinations are carried out at a pace that suits your child. We'll explain everything in a way they can understand and answer any questions you may have along the way.
As with all of our eye examinations, we take a thorough approach to assessing both vision and eye health, using advanced technology where appropriate.
NHS-funded eye care for children in Scotland
Children living in Scotland are entitled to NHS-funded eye examinations, making it easy to keep on top of their eye health as they grow.
If your child needs glasses following their eye examination, they may also be eligible for NHS assistance towards the cost of their eyewear. We'll explain what's available and help you choose the most suitable option for your child.
Children's eyewear
Choosing glasses should be an enjoyable experience.
Whether your child is choosing their very first pair of glasses or your teenager is looking for frames that reflect their own style, we'll help you find eyewear that's comfortable, durable and looks great.
We carefully guide both parents and children through the selection process, making sure every pair fits properly and suits your child's lifestyle.
Supporting your child's vision as they grow
Children's eyes change as they grow, which is why regular eye examinations are so important. By monitoring their vision over time, we can help them see clearly, support their learning and recommend treatment whenever it's needed.
Whatever stage your child is at, we're here to provide personalised care in a calm, welcoming environment in the heart of Edinburgh's Southside.
