Urgent, but not an emergency?

A red eye without pain, a stye, mild conjunctivitis, swollen or itchy eyelids or dry, burning eyes are unpleasant but usually not an emergency. Call us or book a short-notice appointment online – we keep slots free every day for acute complaints.

This information does not replace a medical assessment. When in doubt: better to call once too often.
