At R. A. Glass, we are passionate about eye health. As part of our commitment to provide you with the very highest standard of eye care, we have invested in cutting-edge Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) technology which allows us to examine the back of your eyes in exceptional detail.
Our emergency eye clinic or NI PEARS (Northern Ireland Primary Eyecare Assessment and Referral Service) is a service provided by R. A. Glass Optometrists to help anyone who develops a sudden eye problem, making sure you get the care you need quickly and easily. We should be your first port of call if you are experiencing any of the following symptoms:
Rather than waiting for a doctor's appointment, access to this emergency eye care is available to everyone aged 5 and over who is registered with a GP in Northern Ireland.
NI PEARS appointments are available during our normal working hours, and you will be seen within 48 hours. We will, however, endeavour to see you on the day if the optometrist's clinic allows.
Please be advised, if you do not qualify for an emergency NI PEARS assessment, a private fee will apply depending on your condition.
If you are unsure whether your symptoms qualify you for an NI PEARS examination, please contact your nearest R. A. Glass practice and we’ll be happy to advise.
