Driving safely this winter

Driving in hazardous wintry road conditions is risky business for everyone and even more so for those who have poor eye sight. This winter, please consider the following simple tips if you are a glasses/contact wearer-: 

• Make sure your lenses are clean before you drive.
• Always carry a spare pair of glasses or lenses with you, especially on long journeys or when driving abroad.
• An anti-reflection coating reduces headlight reflections and allows clearer vision in poor light conditions.
• Never wear yellow tinted glasses at night. They darken shadows and make it difficult to see cyclists and pedestrians.

Stay alert, slow down, stay in control and stay safe.

 This scan is non-invasive, painless, simple and quick. What’s more, this image will be stored on our computer – so we can monitor for changes to the condition of your retina with every eye test you take. This gives you an invaluable ongoing record of the health and condition of your eyes.
