Jordans is a different type of optical practice.

In addition to a standard eye test (we allow 60 minutes for an initial appointment - this may be more than double that of some establishments) we also offer a number of other services which are we believe unique in Scotland.

We believe that they can improve visual and other sensory performance significantly for many people. This means that we use the visual system to affect other sensory systems, cognitive processing (making sense of the world), memory and how your body responds to the environment.

This is in addition to a comprehensive standard optical practice.

We fit contact lenses from daily disposable to complex clinical types and undertake contact lens research within the practice. It is believed that we are the first people in the world to have used contact lenses in the treatment of dyslexia.

Educational achievement can often be much greater than you expect - if you get the vision and visual perception right. A normal eye test will address the refraction - but not the way we process visual information - this is critical for students - and studies have shown that about 25% of children can do better!  

Sporting attainment and hand eye coordination can be enhanced significantly in many cases by addressing visual processing 

For those with special needs such as dyslexia, dyspraxia and autism - we are user friendly and appreciate problems. And it makes a big difference! We have been at the cutting edge for more than 20 years.

We are still involved with sensory integration research - it can make an enormous difference to peoples lives.
 
It is also worth coming to see us if you have a chronic pain,  disease or neurological condition as we are currently involved in the development of new techniques.
