At Andrew & Rogers we offer emergency appointments for anyone 3 years or older. For all emergencies we aim to provide you with an appointment in the next 48h. We cover emergency appointments for a large range of eye conditions, just scroll down to find out more. If you feel like you have a problem not listed, please feel free to call us and we can guide you through your options. The cost of a basic emergency eyecare appointment will be covered by the NHS and takes roughly 15 minutes. We often recommend enhancing this with our high-tech retinal scanners. We use OPTOS and OCT scanners which allow an unrivalled diagnostic view of the retina and other ocular structures. It takes around 10 extra minutes and costs £69 for both scanners. For a full health check on your eyes and to allow us to have the most in depth look possible we would recommend having both OCT and OPTOS scans with the majority of appointments.
