PEARS NI – Sudden Onset Eye Problems – Belfast Opticians
At Murray Opticians Belfast, we are proud to offer the PEARS NI (Primary Eyecare Acute Referral Service Northern Ireland) for patients experiencing sudden onset eye problems. PEARS NI provides rapid assessment and management of urgent eye conditions such as red or painful eyes, flashes, floaters, sudden vision loss, or minor eye injuries.
We can assess, diagnose, and sometimes prescribe eye medications or, where appropriate, refer patients directly to Hospital Eye Service, ensuring timely care and peace of mind. Using advanced diagnostic equipment and our wealth of clinical expertise, we aim to detect eye emergencies early, protecting vision and supporting long-term eye health.
This service is ideal for anyone in Belfast experiencing, recent onset (in the last 14 days) eye changes or discomfort, providing fast, professional, and accessible care without the need to see their GP or attend Accident and Emergency at hospital. If you think you need to be seen, please phone us to book a PEARS appointment and give a brief explanation of your symptoms to the receptionist.
