About Mobile-Eyes-UK Ltd

A home visiting optician service bringing eye care to people who find it difficult to attend a high street practice.

Our story

Mobile-Eyes-UK Ltd is a Home Visiting Optician Service with offices in both Bournemouth and Verwood in Dorset. We were founded to take eye examinations to people where they live rather than asking them to travel.

Many people in care settings, and many living at home with limited mobility, struggle to attend a conventional appointment. We saw that a visit to the person in their own environment could make a real difference to their independence and wellbeing.
