Looking for an eye doctor? At Novio Oogzorg your eyes are examined by optometrists: medically trained eye care professionals. We are not opticians and do not sell glasses. Many eye complaints can be assessed and treated by us, without a hospital visit. If you need an ophthalmologist, we refer you directly. What is an optometrist?

With a refractive error, light is not focused sharply on the retina. The result is blurred vision, tired eyes or headaches.
We measure your eyes precisely and also check that your eyes are healthy. Thinking about laser eye surgery or lens replacement? See our pre-assessment.
From around age 40, the lens in your eye becomes less flexible. Reading up close gets harder: you hold your phone further away. This is normal. We measure what you need and check your eyes for other causes at the same time.
Burning, gritty or tired eyes, especially behind a screen, in the wind or with contact lenses. We look at the cause, such as the eyelid glands or the tear film, and give you a clear treatment plan. More about dry eyes.
Surprisingly often, watery eyes are caused by dry eyes: the eye reacts by producing extra tears. Eyelid inflammation or a blocked tear duct can also play a role. We find out the cause and refer you if needed.
Sudden loss of vision, a curtain or shadow in your view, a shower of new floaters with flashes of light, or a painful red eye: call your GP or the out-of-hours GP service (huisartsenpost) immediately, or call us.
