Eye Care Services for Care Home Managers
Reliable Eye Care Services for Care Homes
First Care Optical works with care home managers to deliver reliable, professional eye care services for residents within residential and nursing homes. Our domiciliary optometry service helps care homes meet residents’ clinical needs while minimising disruption to daily routines. For resident-focused information, see Care Home Eye Tests [/home-eye-tests/care-home-eye-tests].
Supporting Care Home Compliance and Resident Wellbeing
Regular eye examinations support resident wellbeing, mobility, and quality of life. Our service helps
care homes demonstrate proactive healthcare provision and good clinical governance. We work in
partnership with care staff to ensure examinations are organised efficiently and sensitively.
NHS-Funded and Private Eye Tests for Care Home Residents
Many care home residents are eligible for NHS-funded home eye tests due to mobility or health needs. Where residents are not eligible, private eye tests can also be arranged. For funding details, see NHS Home Eye Tests [/home-eye-tests/nhs-home-eye-tests] and Eligibility [/home-eye-tests/eligibility].
How We Work with Care Homes
We coordinate appointments directly with care home managers or designated staff members. Our optometrists bring all necessary equipment and adapt examinations to suit residents’ needs, including those living with dementia or complex health conditions. For details of the appointment process, see What to Expect [/home-eye-tests/what-to-expect].
Glasses Supply, Labelling, and Aftercare
Where glasses are required, we provide supply and delivery directly to the care home. We work with care staff to ensure glasses are correctly labelled, fitted, and managed, supporting continuity of care. Learn more on Glasses Supply & Home Delivery [/supporting-eye-care/glasses-home-delivery].
Service Areas and UK-wide Arrangements
Our core service areas are based in the Midlands, with additional UK-wide services available by arrangement for care home groups and organisations.
