Important: Please be aware when attending the eye clinic that it is often necessary for drops to be put in your eyes to make your pupils bigger so a thorough assessment can be performed. If this is done then driving should be avoided for 2-3 hours (or someone else should take you home) after your appointment as you may find your vision feels blurry. In a small number this may last for up to a day. If you wear contact lenses, please bring them and any solutions and cases with you.
