We are working on simplifying our booking system but some things are out of our control.
We are unable to provide sensible appointment type names, but here is an explanation of what the short versions mean.
If you have any further questions about booking an appointment online, please do contact us

Optometrist
We recommend you select “any” as Alex, Sarah and Gillian work on specific days at each practice so your date and time options will be significantly reduced if you specify an individual optometrist.
Appointment Date & Time
When you have selected a specific date the times will then show you what is available. The diary is live so the times options will reduce nearer the date requested.
