Eye Tests
Whether you are a contact lens or a spectacles wearer, it is important to visit your optician regularly to ensure that your eyes are healthy and your prescription is up to date. It is important to check for possible eye conditions that could occur in between eye tests.
We offer various eye exams, tailored to your needs.
Our Eye Exams

The OCT exam
Our high spec scan offers expert results. Not only looking into your eye’s strength, but also seeing if you have any other conditions, such as glaucoma, diabetes, Macular holes and Vitreous Detachments. Similar to an ultrasound, this OCT uses light instead of sound waves to illustrate the different layers that make up the back of the eye. Although this might sound a little alarming, this service is completely non-intrusive and harmless.

What is an Optos Scan?
We cover an external and internal examination as well as an intraocular pressure test. As standard, all of our tests include retinal photography, allowing us to build up a valuable visual record of your eyes over years.

Thank you to Billie and the rest of the team at Dipple and Conway. For many years I have been very sceptical about taking advice from opticians in terms of styles, fits and frames but instantly it was very clear that she is extremely knowledgable about her profession. The customer service from her and the entire team is faultless. The quality of the frames and lenses are incredible. High Street brand opticians have their place in the world but there is absolutely no comparison to a professional company like Dipple and Conway. These folks are in a completely different league. Thank you all. I love my new glasses!

I have been using the Dipple & Conway Norwich branch for several years now and I can't sing their praises enough. Always excellent professional service, with staff who are highly trained and knowledgeable. I have been given the best advice for my needs and therefore, a prescription to match. There are various options available, depending on your preferences for testing - I generally take the full package, including a scan etc. as the best technology is used here. Not only that, they have a select range of frames and sunglasses from well chosen brands, with something for everyone in the latest designs and styles. The dispensing team has been helpful, as I was so indecisive. Always a calm and relaxed environment, it is a pleasure to visit!

Dipple & Conway provide an excellent service but the cost of getting new lens when you don’t want new frames is extremely expensive. I pay a monthly subscription which is nearly £200 annually, so you’d expect a decent discount for new lens. Sadly I’ve ben charged £220 for a pair of single vision lens, that includes the 10% I get for my membership. I feel I have to go through Dipple to get lens because recent experiences getting new lens online have been poor. The daft thing is new glasses would have been £260 with a 25% discount but my existing Rayban frames are lovely and only a year old, it’s wasteful to throw them away.

D and C make you feel like a valued customer. Their VCP is confidence inspiring as if there is a problem you are given an appointment so promptly. My fortnightly contact lenses are so very comfortable and give me extremely good vision considering the shortcomings of my natural sight. From the welcome at reception to the personalised care shown by both Aaron and Deborah I always feel in very professional and approachable hands. Am I their longest standing client having had my first glasses from them 64 years ago?

My husband and I have recently become customers of Dipple & Conway. We both needed new glasses, also my husband additionally new contact lenses. Our service there has been outstanding. We worked with Billie, on our 3 visits. Billie is wonderful. Professional, courteous, knowledgeable and super friendly. We both love our new glasses. I highly recommend Dipple & Conway, and their fabulous assistant Billie.

Abby and her colleagues gave me an extremely thorough eye examination and was only too pleased to explain the different aspects of the tests she carried out. I can’t fault the service at Dipple and Conway at all, and I highly recommend them.
