Eye Examinations
At Ochil Eyes, we believe the eye examination is about more than just making sure you have the right prescription.
We believe its the single
most important part of your journey with us.
Routine eye examinations can be booked online by clicking the ‘Book Now’ button below.
Please do not use this function for an emergency appointment as this needs to be triaged by our optometrist to ensure the correct appointment type is booked within an appropriate timescale.
If you have an emergency and normally attend another optician, we will direct you to contact your own optician in the first instance.
Contact lens consultations are not currently available to book online.

Many people believe that they cannot wear contact lenses because their prescription is too high or because they need multifocals.
Some of our patients even believe they are too old to try contact lenses for the first time. We say you are never too old to try something for the first time.
Richard joined the team at Ochil Eyes in July 2019 as our full time, resident optometrist. He studied at Glasgow Caledonian University and qualified as an optometrist in August 2010. He joined us from Specsavers in Kirkcaldy, having spent 4 years with the busy Fife practice.
Outside of work, Richard enjoys spending time with his wife and two young children, along with their cavapoo Harley. Recommendations for good family days out are always welcome!
Samantha is our practice manager and has been working in optical practice since 2007. She is our longest serving team member, having been with us since the day we opened in May 2010. Since then she has played a pivotal role in the continued growth and success of Ochil Eyes. She is responsible for all aspects of the day to day running of the practice and is one of our senior dispensers.
Away from work, Sam is learning the ropes on the farm she lives on with her partner. Driving tractors, learning about cattle and the diverse world of farming as a whole. A far cry from her day job with us! She also enjoys fitness classes, walking and following her beloved St Johnstone.
Susy is our second longest serving team member, having joined the practice in September 2014. She successfully passed the Level 5 Certificate in Optical Care in 2015. She currently works part time in the practice and is one of our senior dispensers. Susy has a wealth of knowledge and experience in all things optics.
Away from work, Susy is a talented artist specialising in pet portraits. You can view her work on her website susynimmo.com, as well as her Facebook and Instagram pages. When she is not working with us or on her latest commission, Susy enjoys spending time with her family, especially her four young grandchildren.
