Titan Eye+ Explained: The Free Eye Test and What to Expect

Some of the stores in our directory are not watch stores at all but Titan Eye+, Titan Company’s eyewear chain. Their most popular service is a free eye test, which you can book in advance. This guide explains what happens during the test and how to prepare.

Titan Eye+ and Titan World are different stores

Titan World stores sell watches; Titan Eye+ stores sell spectacles, sunglasses and contact lenses and carry out eye tests. The two may share a name and a parent company, but you cannot buy glasses at a Titan World store or service a watch at Titan Eye+. A few shops listed in our directory are Titan Eye+ branches, so check the store name before you visit.

Is the eye test really free?

Yes. Titan Eye+ advertises a free eye test, which it calls a 20-step test, and you can request an appointment through its website. You are not obliged to buy glasses afterwards.

What the test checks

According to Titan Eye+, the examination covers:

• Visual acuity: how clearly you see at a distance and close up.
• Refraction: whether you are short-sighted, long-sighted or have astigmatism, and the lens power needed to correct it.
• Eye muscle function: how well your eyes move and work together.
• Pupil reaction to light.
• Peripheral vision: what you can see at the sides.
• Eye pressure: measured with a tonometer as a check for glaucoma.

The test is painless and non-invasive, and it takes roughly 30 to 60 minutes.

How to prepare

• Bring your current glasses or contact lenses, and your last prescription if you have it.
• Note any symptoms: headaches when reading, blurred vision at night, eye strain at the computer.
• Mention any medical conditions, such as diabetes or high blood pressure, and any medicines you take.
• Allow enough time; do not book the test just before another appointment.

If the optometrist finds a problem

An optometrist at Titan Eye+ can prescribe lenses. If the test suggests a condition that needs medical treatment, they may refer you to an ophthalmologist, an eye doctor. Follow up on that referral even if your vision feels fine; conditions such as glaucoma often have no symptoms in the early stages.

How often to get your eyes tested

Advice varies between every one and two years for adults, and more often for children, older people and anyone with diabetes or a family history of eye disease. Ask the optometrist what interval suits you.

Before you buy glasses

You are free to take your prescription elsewhere. If you buy at Titan Eye+, ask about the delivery time for your lenses, the warranty on frames and lenses, and the store’s policy if the new glasses feel uncomfortable during the first days.
