Our expert eye-care services
Comprehensive eye exams
We feel there are two very important elements to a top quality eye exam; time and experience.
Our Optometrists (Opticians) boast an average of 22 years experience each in taking care of patients eye health. They are truly experts, and passionate about providing a service second to none.
Secondly, when you visit us you’ll be given the time you need to ensure you have a satisfactory eye exam. We’re here for you if you have questions and you won’t be rushed.
We believe that expert eye care can’t be rushed. Our eyes are extremely complicated and one size rarely fits all. We encourage you to take the time to ask our experts questions about their daily visual needs. The more information we have, the better we can provide optical solutions for you.

eye examinations
When you book an eye test with us, you’ll benefit from experienced eye-care professionals who’ll take their time to identify your unique optical needs.
Great eye care should not be rushed. Every patient has unique needs based around their eye health and their lifestyle. We use our experience to ensure we can put you in a position to make the most of any glasses you may require.
Modern eye care is all about giving your patients options. Options that compliment their lifestyle and needs. Speak to us and we’ll take good care of you.
Myopia Management is an area of children’s eye care dedicated to slowing down childhood myopia progression.
Myopia is a common vision condition where you can see objects close to you clearly, but objects further away are blurry. Children who have rapid myopia progression are at a much higher risk of developing dangerous eye conditions such glaucoma, retinal detachments and Macular Degeneration in later life.
Hoya’s Myiosmart lenses and Coopervision Mysight contact lenses are new technology that have been specifically designed to treat myopia in children, slowing their myopia progression and reducing the chances of serious eye conditions in later life. Crowley’s Optometrists have been trained to identify and prescribe – thus helping to manage childhood myopia.
MYOPIA MANAGEMENT CAN REDUCE MYOPIA PROGRESSION IN CHILDREN BY 60%
20% of people struggle with some form of visual processing issue where the eye is functioning perfectly, but the visual message being sent to the brain along the Visual Cortex is being misinterpreted.
This processing issue can lead to severe visual issues.
Problems such as MIGRAINE, MOTION SICKNESS, DYSLEXIA, DYSPRAXIA (DCD), ADHD and some conditions related to AUSTISM are often visual processing issues.
Crowleys Opticians have invested in Visual Processing facilities as the future of optical care will incorporate a service for suffering from visual stress due to processing issues.
Modern life means more screen time, which is causing our eyes to deteriorate at a faster rate. Dry Eye is a side-effect of staring at screens for long periods – meaning you blink less, damaging your eyes.
Thankfully, once identified, Dry Eye can be treated, alleviating the headaches, irritation and visual distress that it can cause. The longer you leave it, the more damage that can be done.
Most commonly, people who experience it feel like they have grit, or sand, in their eyes. A sensation of constant irritation. Don’t suffer, contact us today.
Bring our expert service to where you work with our unique full-and-free workplace eye testing service. We’ve conducted eye tests in over 100 organizations across Ireland and have been told staff appreciate this essential health and wellbeing service being brought to their place of work, at their convenience.
We provide a range of services for drivers. From driving reports, to prescription sunglasses and anti-glare lenses for night-time driving, we’ll keep you on the road.
Eye strain caused visual fatigue is a major cause of road accidents and collisions. Keeping your prescription up to date important when driving, but there are also solutions we can provide for the low, blinding winter sun (prescription sunglasses) and for night-time driving when headlight glare can be dazzling (anti-glare lenses).
Our onsite lab means we can provide quality lenses, quickly.
We have the technology in our labs onsite to ensure your new lenses are cut to the highest quality. This is part of our commitment to excellent optical service.
It also means we can fit your lenses quickly, reducing your wait time, and we can react if you need to make changes.
Dedicated Children's Areas
At Crowleys, we pride ourselves on our expertise in working with our youngest customers. This is why we’ve developed a kids area for each of our stores. These areas are designed to relax kids and make them feel welcome, while mum and dad have important conversations with our experts.
When focusing on children’s eye health, we work hard to keep everyone calm and focused. Intervention at a young age can be crucial to identifying or correcting any issues your child may have.
We’ve also opened Ireland’s first optical sensory room in our Newbridge store for children and adults with sensory issues. This is an area of eye health that is often overlooked, and our ongoing investment in these facilities is an example of our dedication to ALL children’s eye care.
Over the course of our long history as an opticians, we’ve almost seen everything! Here’s some common questions we get asked, and some general answers. Just be aware that nothing is as good as a one to one consultation. Cases and symptoms vary, so if in doubt, call us or book an appointment.
OUR SOCIAL CHANNELS ARE UPDATED REGULARLY WITH EXPERT ADVICE, INFORMATION AND EYE-CARE UPDATES
We think that two very important things set us apart from many other experiences you may have; time and experience.
We believe that an eye exam is a vital health service that everyone should take as seriously as a trip to the doctors. Your vision is vital. Therefore, an eye exam shouldn’t be rushed. We’ll go at a pace that suits you to ensure you get the best possible advice and outcomes. We’ll answer your questions and make you feel at home.
Secondly, our long history as eye care specialists means that we can bring our experience to any consultation we provide. Our Optometrists (Opticians) boast an average of 22 years each in taking care of patients needs. Your eye health is important and should be entrusted to the best, most experience eye care professionals.
First of all, you’ll call, email or book online to book your appointment. Once you arrive before your appointment time, you’ll meet with one of our dispensing opticians. They’ll speak to you about previous visits, or any eye health issues you have previously experienced. Then you’ll meet with one of our optometrists who will conduct the full eye exam. They we carry out a number of exams over 30 minutes that will give a full picture of your eye health and your optical prescription.
Once you’ve finished your test, the optometrist will discuss recommendations with you, before bringing you out to speak to our dispensing optician (DO). The DO will speak to you about the results of your eye exam, and will discuss any solutions or recommendations. They’ll also talk to you about lenses, tints and frames (including frames that would fit your prescription) to ensure you have options for the best of eye care.
We’ll arrange a follow up appointment if needed, and will be available to you for any post appointment questions you may have, either over the phone, via email or in person.
This will depend on your own personal PRSI entitlements and circumstance, however our staff will advise you on what discounts or benefits you are entitled to. You can find out more about the Treatment Benefit Scheme on Gov.ieor on the Citizens Advice Bureau.
My 6 month old son just received his new glasses in your Newbridge store in Kildare. They made his new transition so easy and they were so patient, helpful and kind. I cannot praise them enough. Thank you.

After years of being a customer to one of the bigger chains I decided to try Crowleys instead. So glad I did! Very professional. Most importantly the eye exam was very thorough and not rushed. Highly recommended!

Superb Opticians
Superb opticians with a growing range of modern frames to rival anything I’ve seen abroad. Was able to replace my Moscots there recently. Very much worth a look!
