How to choose an optician in Bexley

  • Have an eye test at least every two years, or more often if advised.
  • Check whether you qualify for a free NHS eye test.
  • Compare lens coatings and warranties, not just frame prices.
  • Ask independent opticians about OCT scans for a detailed view of eye health.

Checks and regulation: Optometrists and dispensing opticians must be registered with the General Optical Council (GOC).
