Home Eye Tests Across Leicester
Our GOC-registered opticians bring full sight-testing equipment straight to people's homes right across Leicester and the wider county. We travel into Leicester city centre and out to Oadby, Wigston, Loughborough, Hinckley, Coalville and Ashby-de-la-Zouch, across to Melton Mowbray and Market Harborough, and into Rutland for Oakham. Whether you live on a quiet lane in rural Leicestershire or a flat near the city centre, the same portable test chart, retinoscope and digital instruments come to your living room, so there is no journey into town and no parking to worry about.
We regularly visit care homes, sheltered and retirement housing schemes, and patients who are housebound or find it hard to leave home unaccompanied. If you are eligible — for example aged 60 or over, diabetic, registered sight-impaired, or unable to leave home on your own — your home eye test is funded by the NHS and we take care of the paperwork for you. Same-week appointments are usually available across Leicestershire, and private examinations can be arranged too if you would rather not wait or do not qualify for NHS cover.
Common Questions — Leicester
Which parts of Leicestershire do you cover?
We cover Leicester city centre and towns and villages right across the county, including Oadby, Wigston, Loughborough, Hinckley, Coalville, Market Harborough and Melton Mowbray, plus Oakham over in Rutland. If you are not sure whether your village or postcode falls within our area, give us a ring and we will confirm and book a visit.
Will my Leicester home eye test be free on the NHS?
Many of our Leicestershire patients qualify for an NHS-funded home eye test at no cost to them. You are usually eligible if you are aged 60 or over, diabetic, registered sight-impaired, or unable to leave home unaccompanied. If you do not meet the NHS criteria, we also offer competitively priced private examinations, whether you are in Loughborough, Wigston or out towards Melton Mowbray.
How quickly can you visit my home in Leicester?
We can normally offer a same-week appointment for most Leicestershire addresses, from Oadby and Hinckley to the more rural areas around Market Harborough. For care homes and sheltered housing we can see several residents on the same visit, and we will always agree a time that suits you and any family member or carer who would like to be there.
