Local Optician - Glaucoma expert


Recommended Posts

I'd be grateful if someone could recommend a local optician with experience of glaucoma sufferers.


I don't necessarily have glaucoma, but it runs in the family and I would like an early diagnosis if/when it comes.


Ideally the optician should have the proper field-of-vision testing kit and not just the puffer machine for testing eye pressure.


Many thanks

If you have time to spare City University Eye Clinic is great http://www.city.ac.uk/health/public-clinics/fight-for-sight-eye-clinic, they've referred me to King's before (as a Glaucoma risk). You don't have to have any connection to City University (I don't).


If you go in term time you get a student (and then a consultant checking their prescription for you) which is excellent, cheap and very thorough, but the downside is that it takes AGES!

    • I wanted to just add that my experience has shown me that fitness classes aimed at an older demographic are often nowhere near as good or as much fun as those aiming at all and sundry.. most classes I've been to NOT aiming at 'Middle aged' people have had such a mixed bag and everyone does what they can at their own pace and this is encouraged. Do give it a go.
    • Greens have some mad polices and I am still trying to work out if it is true that the leader of the party thought he could hypnotize women to have larger breasts 🤷‍♂️ country is in a real state at the min and all party’s have a part to play in that. what the future holds who knows but it is worrying.
    • A stellar win for the Greens in Gorton and Denton, no doubt. But by-elections are funny beasts. Labour's strength traditionally has been in its ground game. Legions of canvassers over many years in many seats usually means that they are best placed to 'get out the vote' on election day. I can't quite believe that the Greens have enough data, or people, to wrest control of the council from Labour. 
    • Was a regular haunt of mine for many years and had a lot of fun times in there and some marvellous food down the years. Though, admittedly I spent most of my time in there doing some serious boozing. In recent times I've been a less frequent visitor to this fine establishment. I seriously hope it doesn't change too much. It's always had a good vibe in there and that's down to Tim and Rod and all of the staff who have worked there over the past 26 years.
