We visit your care home and test ALL residents in one scheduled visit. Zero admin for your staff. CQC documentation included.
📞 Call for Block Contract QuoteNational providers like OutsideClinic have stopped group eye clinics — they now only test individual residents booked by next of kin. This creates massive admin burden for your staff and leaves residents untested. We still offer full-coverage block contracts. Your residents deserve better.
We'll test every resident in one scheduled visit — no chasing next of kin, no gaps, no untested residents.
We handle 100% of NHS claims, scheduling, reminders, and documentation. You get one quarterly report.
Every visit, same friendly face. Residents build trust. We learn their needs and communication preferences.
Broken glasses repaired within 48 hours — not the 2-4 weeks national providers quote.
Annual compliance reports, staff training certificates, and resident eye care records — ready for inspection.
Adapted techniques for residents with Alzheimer's, vascular dementia, and cognitive conditions.
