The Kids Experience

Children can have an eye test at any age with us regardless if they can speak or read. It is important you bring in your child regularly so that we can detect any visual issues very early on.

We focus on giving kids the best experience instore, making it our mission to ensure they have had an exciting, fun and welcoming experience.

Our experience does not stop just at the end of the test, we have many instore treats and gifts for your child in addition to their pair of glasses.

Our Kids Lens

After your child has had their test with the clinician they will then be looked after our friendly lens specialists. They will ensure all the right frame measurements have taken and your child’s needs and preferences have been met.

Children have different facial features and visual needs compared to Adults. Our Kids Eyezen® DualOptim lens provides a better all-round visual experience compared to a standard single vision lens.

Your Kids Vison Explained

After checking your eyes our clinicians will provide you a personalised recommendation for your eyes

Short sightedness

Myopia, or short-sightedness is characterised by the difficulty of seeing a distance object clearly but can see a close-up object clearly. Your child may have difficulty reading the school board, watching TV or seeing things from a far.

Long sightedness

Hyperopia, or long-sightedness is characterised by the difficulty of seeing an object that is close. You child may be complaining of headaches, eye strain and may squint or feel fatigued when performing work at near vision.

Astigmatism

Astigmatism means that your child’s eye is shaped more like a rugby ball, rather than a football. This causes distorted vision as light focuses on the eye in more than one place. Your child may experience dizziness, eyestrain, headaches & squinting.

Kids Glasses Range

We have the largest Kids Optical & Sunglasses Collection available for prescription and non-prescription use in the Area.

We have a range of frame styles, colours and shapes that can be combined with your child’s customised lenses giving your child the perfect vision and enhancing their style.
