At that distance most people come for one of two clinics. Dry eye: the Dry Eye Assessment, then treatment here, EyeClean, plugs, Lacrifill. Or myopia control for a child whose prescription has risen two years running, fitted here rather than in Leeds.
Because it’s a drive, we put the scan, the assessment and any fitting into one visit; say when you book that you’re travelling. If you’re already under HRI for your eyes, tell us who you see and we’ll write to them.
There are a few ways to reach us. A62 (Leeds Road) north-east through Mirfield, then the A644 and A638. Twenty-five minutes. Park on Market Street or at the Green car park. If you’re not sure, call us and we’ll point you the right way.
Parking: Market Street and the Green car park. Hours: Monday to Friday 9:00am – 5:30pm · Saturday and Sunday closed.
