In December 2022 we are excited to announce that we will begin to offer Rawlings Hearing Care at our Winchester and Stockbridge branches, extending through our other branches during 2023.

This will include wax removal as well as free hearing tests and supply of hearing devices and ear plugs. We are independent hearing specialists, so we can select the best solution for you from all the best brands.

We aim to provide the same level of personal service and aftercare as you have come to expect with our eyecare, with repairs and replacement of filters being offered as well. Most of our hearing devices are rechargeable to avoid you having to replace batteries, but if you do choose a non-rechargeable model it will come with 2 years worth of batteries.

Our hearing devices all come with a 4 year guarantee for peace of mind, and at your yearly check up can be adjusted to optimise the sound. Some models even come with a smartphone app so that you can change the sound levels simply from your phone!

Ears need a check-up too

Just like you come to us every 1-2 years to have your eyes tested, we recommend you get your hearing checked every 3-5 years. When it comes to hearing loss, earlier detection leads to better outcomes. If you wear a hearing device, yearly checks are recommended.

We offer:

• Wax Removal
• Hearing devices – rechargeable and smartphone app linked available
• Custom made ear plugs
