So far never see any. Guess already use to it. Specialist have told me is part of aging. Check up done was ok.
Wow good to hear now u never see any. Mine was told by doc to be part of aging too such that the jelly behind the eyes have decreased. Do you take any eye health supplement and go for yearly checkup? Btw how old were u when u kena floaters?

Sorry, I didn’t want to start a new thread and bumped this.

My right eye is blurry if cover up my left eye

I believe I need glasses but don’t quite trust those at spectacles shop to tell me my degree for my blur right eye

The NYP $5 eye exam only starts next mth but I need my glasses soon.

Is it possible to book appointment at any SNEF Singapore Eye clinic?
I read in this chat that it costs $128 to $158?

Or I need to Go polyclinic and get a referral letter so it will be cheaper?

Hi, have you try their service? If yes, care to share your experience?
yes, good experience, checks are typically conducted by final year students, then verified by their instructors

checks are very comprehensive, 4-5 tests, do cater some time for it

Tks for the quick reply.

I emailed them for the list of tests as it is not stated anywhere on their website. Apparently NP also have this cheap service but can't seem to find any review.

My apologies for asking more questions as SPOC has yet to reply to my email.

1. How long did you wait before they contact you after submitting the appointment request form?
2. And are they able to issue referral letter for serious problem to public specialist if need be?
1. sorry, did a search of my emails, unable to find previous email exchange, maybe around 1 week?
2. i think so, but best to double-check with them
