As your local and independent opticians, we aim to bring you the best advanced eye care and examinations.
We will always go further than checking your prescription, looking comprehensively at your eyes to ensure they are in good health. All eye tests are carried out by qualified practitioners using the latest technology so all of our patients can rest assured that any problems with their eyes will be diagnosed and taken care of.
All eye examinations are free for everyone in Scotland so get in touch today and give your eyes the attention they deserve.
Our Enhanced Plus Eye Examinations are our most popular choice and are unique to Purcells. These include eye care services in addition to our NHS Eye Examination and is the Gold Standard for Eye Care in Dumfries & Galloway.
Our new Enhanced Plus Eye Exam includes OCT scans and Optomap, which is ultra widefield retinal imaging. This shows us up to 200 degrees of the retina, in comparison to 45 degree in a normal eye exam. Seeing more means earlier detection, and earlier treatment.
Relationship
Be cared for by the same Optician time and again! At Purcells we believe an important part of our eye examination is to get to know you, your eyes and your lifestyle. This is impossible if you see a different Optician every time you attend and so we ensure that our team are invested in our culture, that you are respected and valued, meaning that you can expect to see that same Optician on every visit.
It is about your overall eye health, not just your vision
Many people don’t book an eye examination until the point that they feel their vision is changing. Our advice would be to get your eyes tested regularly, regardless of your vision. Your eyes can tell us a lot about other health conditions–many of which are unknown to you.
At Purcell Opticians, our practice is designed to create a welcoming, friendly environment — a place where you can truly feel at home. We want your visit to be more than just a check-up; it’s a chance to escape the busyness of everyday life and take a moment for yourself. From the warm atmosphere to our caring team, everything is tailored to make you feel comfortable, respected, and cared for.
