Eye examinations in Sutton Coldfield

At Charles Morris Optometrists, we have been caring for the eyes of our local community since 1958. Our eye examinations are designed to be thorough, unhurried and easy to understand, giving you confidence in the care you receive.

We welcome both private and NHS patients and take the time to really get to know you and your eyes.

A thorough 40-minute eye examination

Our eye examinations last around 40 minutes, giving us the time needed to check your eye health properly and assess your vision in detail.

We do not rush appointments. Instead, we focus on understanding how your eyes feel, how you use your vision day to day, and whether you have any concerns you would like to talk through.

Continuity of care with a named optometrist

We believe continuity matters. Wherever possible, you will see the same optometrist at each visit, building a relationship based on trust and familiarity.

Our experienced team gets to know your eyes over time, allowing us to spot even small changes and offer consistent, personalised care.

Enhanced eye examination with OCT

For patients who want an even deeper look at their eye health, we offer enhanced eye examinations using OCT technology.

An OCT scan allows us to see detailed layers beneath the surface of the eye, helping us detect early signs of eye conditions that cannot always be seen with standard tests. The scan is quick, painless and provides valuable reassurance about your long-term eye health.

Time to talk and personalised advice

Your appointment includes plenty of time to discuss your vision, lifestyle and any worries you may have about your eyes.

We explain everything clearly, without jargon, and work with you to find the best outcome for your vision and eye health. Our aim is to help you feel informed, comfortable and confident in every decision.
