NHS-Funded Low Vision Services in Wales
Our Low Vision Services are available exclusively to patients living in Wales and who meet the specific eligibility criteria set out by the NHS. During a low vision assessment, we provide access to a wide range of optical and non-optical aids, including magnifiers, telescopes, reading aids, and tinted overlays. These tools are carefully selected to support everyday tasks such as reading, writing, watching television, and recognising faces. As part of the WGOS3 Low Vision Service, all approved aids are supplied at no cost to the patient, ensuring essential support is accessible to everyone who qualifies.
COMPLETELY FREE THROUGH THE NHS PATIENTS PAY ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!
Support Beyond Vision Care
At Quayside Opticians, we understand that low vision can affect many aspects of daily life. Alongside providing Low Vision support, we also liaise with other government and local support services where appropriate. This may include social services, educational support for visually impaired individuals, and guidance on home adaptations for people with disabilities. Our experienced team takes a professional, patient-focused approach, ensuring each individual receives tailored advice and ongoing support. As a local practice based in Deeside, we are committed to helping our community access the full benefits of NHS Low Vision Services available in Wales.
