Ultimate Eye Examination
The Leightons Ultimate Eye Examination offers a comprehensive eye examination lasting about 45 minutes. It includes Optomap and OCT scans, providing detailed 2D and 3D images of the eyes. The exam covers vision assessment, prescription determination, eye muscles evaluation and overall eye health checks. It is included in MyLeightons Care Plans.
Contact Lenses
A contact lens appointment is a thorough evaluation for both new and existing contact lens wearers. For new wearers, it includes an eye health assessment, lens fitting, and instructions on lens care and usage. For existing wearers, it involves a check-up and potential refitting. This appointment also involves scheduling a follow-up to ensure optimal lens fit, comfort, and vision clarity for all contact lens wearers.
Myopia Management
Myopia management includes a variety of treatments and strategies designed to slow the progression of short-sightedness in children. Book an eye exam with an optometrist to assess whether your child has myopia and to discuss the suitable management strategies tailored to their needs.
Dry Eye Assessment
A dry eye assessment involves a comprehensive evaluation that includes gathering a detailed patient history and conducting a series of diagnostic tests to accurately diagnose and determine the severity and type of dry eye disease.
Emergency Eye Care
Emergency eye care is a service for urgent eye health issues, such as sudden pain, vision changes, or eye injuries. The process involves triage, followed by an appointment with an optometrist within 72 hours, or a referral to eye casualty if necessary. For urgent care during our normal opening hours, please call us first. Outside these hours, contact NHS 111.
Coloured Overlay Assessment
Coloured Overlay Assessments involve using transparent coloured sheets placed over text to identify whether a specific colour reduces visual stress symptoms. This test typically takes about 30 minutes and follows an eye examination in which you will have discussed your concerns about visual stress with your optometrist.

Hearing Aids
Hearing aid appointments involve evaluating your hearing needs and fitting suitable devices. Following a full hearing assessment, your audiologist may recommend hearing aid solutions. The appointment includes discussing hearing aid options, fitting the devices, and providing instructions on their use and care. For a hearing aid review, a 30-minute routine check-up appointment addresses your concerns without requiring a full hearing assessment.
Ear Wax Removal
Ear wax removal is a procedure to clear excess or impacted ear wax from the ear canal. For £70, it includes a brief examination, followed by one of several removal methods such as microsuction, water irrigation, or manual extraction. The appointment takes 30 minutes, depending on the amount and position of the wax, and the specific technique used.
Home Visits
Home visits offer a comprehensive hearing care service in the comfort of your own home. It includes a full hearing assessment using portable equipment, conducted by a professional audiologist. The service provides everything available in-branch, including video otoscopy, tinnitus advice, wax removal, and hearing aid demonstrations and fittings.
Tinnitus Management
Tinnitus management is a comprehensive appointment designed to help individuals cope with and reduce the impact of tinnitus. This involves assessing underlying causes, providing a hearing evaluation, and offering various treatment options to help patients manage their symptoms. Book a full hearing assessment and discuss tinnitus concerns with your audiologist.
Hearing Protection
A hearing protection appointment is a personalised consultation to assess your specific needs and provide tailored hearing protection solutions. An audiologist will discuss your lifestyle, work environment, and noise exposure, then recommend appropriate options such as custom-moulded ear plugs for various activities. The appointment typically takes 30 minutes, depending on individual requirements and whether custom moulds are needed.
