What the NHS register says about this practice

Optimax Laser Eye Clinic (Finchley Rd, London) is listed as an active optical site in the NHS Organisation Data Service on 4 September 2026, at 128 Finchley Road, London, NW3 5HT, in the Belsize ward of Camden. The site has held a listing since April 2008, 18 years at this snapshot. It is operated by Optimax Laser Eye Surgery, a contractor with 12 listed sites in England, registered at an address in London. Groups of that size usually set their own prices practice by practice rather than publishing a national rate. NHS sight testing at this address is commissioned through NHS West and North London Integrated Care Board, in the London Commissioning Region. The register carries this practice twice, under TP37Q as well as TP3XN, which usually means a contract was re-registered without the earlier record being closed.

It is one of 54 optical sites the register holds in Camden, 5 of which are within a mile of this address. Independent practices like this one typically charge £30 to £60 for a private sight test, against £24 to £30 at the big chains, and the test is free if you qualify for NHS funding.

Where this data comes from

Practice records are taken from the NHS Organisation Data Service reference data for Optical Headquarters and Sites, snapshot taken 4 September 2026. A listing records that an optical site was on the register on that date. It is not an NHS endorsement, a licence, a quality rating, or a guarantee that the practice is taking new patients. Opening hours, telephone numbers and prices are not held in this dataset, so confirm them with the practice before travelling.
