What Is a Private Home Eye Test?

A private home eye test is a full eye examination carried out at home and paid for privately rather than through NHS funding. It provides the same clinical assessment as a high-street optician, without the need to travel. To understand how the appointment works, see What to Expect.

Who Chooses a Private Home Eye Test?

Private home eye tests are suitable for patients who are not eligible for NHS-funded visits, those who prefer flexible appointment times, or individuals who would like quicker access to eye care. They are also commonly arranged for family members who wish to manage appointments privately.

Private Home Eye Tests vs NHS Home Eye Tests

Private home eye tests are available regardless of NHS eligibility. If you may qualify for NHS funding, we are happy to advise. For NHS-funded options, see NHS Home Eye Tests or check Eligibility.

What Happens During a Private Home Eye Test?

During the appointment, the optometrist will assess vision and eye health, discuss any concerns, and check for common eye conditions. If glasses are required, we will explain the options available. For a detailed overview, see What to Expect.

Glasses and Aftercare

If glasses are prescribed following a private home eye test, we can arrange supply and delivery directly to your home. We offer a wide range of frames and lenses to suit individual needs and preferences. Learn more about this service on Glasses Supply & Home Delivery.
