Children’s eye tests and glasses

Paediatric Optometry is one of our specialties. Your children’s vision is so precious and instrumental in choices later in life. Before they get to school, the screening in nurseries can pick up lazy eyes. This is an invaluable service although it is not a full sight test.

From the age of 3, children can do an eye test pretty well. The brain has to learn to see and it depends on the eyes sending it good accurate information. An uncorrected prescription can mean this is poor and vision doesn’t develop as it should. Finding a lazy eye sooner means it can be treated sooner. It is recommended to have a sight test before starting school as well.

How do children know what is normal to see? They may not notice or be able to tell you they have a problem. It is not always obvious to an onlooker that there is a problem either.

An NHS sight test will evaluate your child’s eyes and make sure they are getting a proper start in their education with good vision. Around 13% of school children have an undiagnosed eye problem.

Amazing family run business. Were great with my kids for their tests and gave my husband good advice when purchasing frames.

Great friendly efficient service at Clearvue Opticians. Eyes checked and glasses chosen for both myself and my mum who had a home visit from Jonathan, very happy.

I would like to recommend Clearvue Opticians and particularly Jonathan who has helped me through a long problem with my eyes. He has been patient, kind and professional and I cannot thank him enough.

Mrs D.McC.

My kids have both been great at your opticians. Jay is fantastic with the kids and Becky is so welcoming and friendly.

Mrs P.B.

Knowledgeable, friendly and family run practice. I was put at ease and it was a thorough eye exam. Good range of frames to choose from and great advice given. Very happy and would recommend.

Mrs L.McI.

I took my 7yr old to have a routine eye test and Jonathan was fantastic with him, completely put him at ease, a much friendlier and personal approach than the large chains. Have recommended Clearvue to all family and friends.

Mrs M.B.

Received very good service at the Currie branch, Jonathan the Optometrist was very thorough, took time to talk me through my eye images and was very helpful and caring. Great service received and would highly recommend to anyone. My Partner and daughter are also booked in to see Jonathan so we now have a family optician for all of our eye care.

Mrs A.M

Myself my husband and my daughter all had our eyes tested at Clearvue. Jonathan was so lovely and put us all at ease. Great choice of frames. Will definitely be recommending to friends and family.

Mrs L.T.

Expert advice from Jonathon and a fantastic range of frames. Love my new prescription Ray-Bans which were ready really quickly! Will definitely be visiting again to trial contact lenses!

Mrs K.M.

Myself and my two wee boys visited today to get our eyes tested. Jay was amazing with my sons...one of my boys was very anxious after having a bad experience at another opticians. Jay was great with him, explaining everything he was going to do before he did it and putting my wee boy at ease. My other wee boy needed drops in and he made it so easy for him. Both boys need glasses and there was a great variety to choose from- they are both delighted! Brilliant service and would highly recommend.
