EXPERT EYE TESTS TAILORED TO YOU

A thorough assessment covers vision, prescription needs, and overall eye health for adults and children. During the appointment, Dixons Opticians uses digital retinal photography, OCT scans, and Optomap technology to monitor changes and identify concerns at an early stage. Each examination checks for glaucoma, cataracts, macular degeneration, dry eye, visual stress, and myopia progression.
 

  • NHS-funded appointments are available for those who qualify (free*).

  • Private appointments cost £51 and offer extended time for a detailed evaluation.

  • Recommended additional imaging includes:
     

    • Optomap ultra-widefield imaging – £20

    • OCT 3D scan – £30

    • Combined Optomap + OCT bundle – £40
       

This process is calm and well-paced, suitable for younger patients and anyone who feels anxious. Guidance is provided on prescription choices, eye comfort, and suitable lens types. Routine checks can also highlight wider health concerns such as diabetes, blood pressure, stroke risk, and cholesterol levels.
 

Targeted assessments are available for specific concerns:
 

  • Dry Eye Assessment – £50

  • Lid hygiene and eyelid-health treatment with BlephEx™ – £55

  • Visual stress screening using ReadEZ visual stress test – £42

  • Visual fields test when required – free
     

If needed, patients receive a tailored treatment plan, including a selection of drops and lid-care products. Support continues beyond the appointment, with aftercare, product recommendations, and follow-up to help manage symptoms or monitor changes. Book your private eye test today and get your eyewear. 

CUSTOMER FEEDBACK

Rebecca Marshall

As a longtime, very high myopic patient with enormous astigmatism, I recommend wholeheartedly Dixons Opticians in Lincoln for their expertise, professionalism, and friendliness. In particular, Stuart Furniss, Ophthalmic Optician, has been an absolute Godsend to me! Both Stuart and his colleague, Lauren Ward, Dispensing Optician, are superb and top of their professions. From Dixons Opticians receptionists, Catherine, Jan and Marta, you will always be greeted with a kind, friendly and welcoming face! As a patient of Dixons Opticians, you will always be so well cared for and, in short, simply delighted!!

Lord Winter

Fantastic, offering very professional services and value far above the standard high street mass market brands.

Been using them for years for my son's glasses and now contact lenses as well.
