OCT stands for Ocular Coherence Tomography, a sophisticated medical imaging technique that allows the eye to be examined in greater depth than ever before.

The procedure is quick, non-invasive and painless.

The scan and assessment should last no longer that 30 minutes.

An OCT scan may be recommended following your routine sight examination or you may wish to book an appointment for a scan if you are concerned about changes with your eyes.

We provide OCT scanning at our Deal and Canterbury branch. Contact our team to book an appointment.

The cost of an OCT scan appointment is £45, or inclusive as part of your annual eye care if you are a member of BiggsPlan.

Unfortunately, the cost of an OCT scan is not subsidised in any way by the National Health Service.
