Emergency eye care

If you have an eye emergency such as a painful red eye, a rapid change in your vision, or are experiencing new flashing lights or floaters in your vision, then it is important that you seek advice from your optometrist.

TESTIMONIALS

WHAT OUR PATIENTS SAY

We take pride in providing exceptional eye care and a personalised experience for every patient. Here’s what our satisfied patients have to say:

I can’t thank the team enough for identifying the real state of my eyesight . Looks like for 7 years i have been prescribed lenses I didn’t need! Thank goodness I decided on getting a second opinion. The 90 minutes it takes to get there is time well spent Mary and the team are absolute stars and the service from every perspective is superb.

Chris Baker

First class experience at Shrewsbury Optometry. They’ve sensitively handled my youngest daughter needing to wear eye patches, patiently found me the most comfortable contact lenses and seen my husband in an emergency. So professional and kind, I can’t recommend highly enough.

Lydia B

Best optician I have ever been to. Amazing knowledge. Customers are treated with respect & valued.

Ruth Harris

Excellent opticians. I’m not a local and they helped me when I was in Shrewsbury and my glasses broke which would have prevented me driving home. They fixed my glasses the same day. Thank you again.
