Our Heritage

Four Generations of Norfolk Families Have Trusted Us With Their Sight

Since our founding, the Dipple & Conway family has been caring for Norfolk's eyes and ears. What started as a single practice has grown into five locations across the county, but our values haven't changed. Every patient is treated as family.

When you visit our Hunstanton practice, you're not a number. You're greeted by name, cared for by the same clinician visit after visit, and given the time you deserve. That's the independent difference, and it's something no corporate chain can replicate.

Real reviews from real people in our community. This is what personalised, independent eye and hearing care feels like.

"After years at Specsavers, switching to Dipple & Conway was a revelation. The OCT scan picked up early signs of glaucoma that had been completely missed. I'm so grateful — and the frames are gorgeous too!"

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about booking your appointment and what to expect at our Hunstanton practice.

Your complimentary assessment includes a thorough evaluation of your current eye health using our advanced Optos retinal imaging and OCT scanning technology. You'll receive a personalised report with clear explanations of any findings and honest recommendations — with absolutely no obligation or pressure to purchase anything. It's designed to give you genuine insights into your eye health that you can act on.

Standard eye tests check your prescription but often don't include the detailed retinal imaging we offer. Our Optos technology captures 200° of your retina (compared to 45° with standard cameras), and our OCT scans can detect conditions like glaucoma and macular degeneration up to 5 years before symptoms appear. Even if your prescription is up to date, an advanced health check offers valuable peace of mind.

Absolutely. At Dipple & Conway, you'll receive longer appointments (no rushing), see the same clinician each visit, and benefit from diagnostic equipment that many corporate chains simply don't invest in. Our Vision Care Plan also means ongoing savings of 25% on spectacles and contact lenses, plus an open-door policy for any concerns between appointments — something the chains don't offer.

If you're noticing any changes — struggling to follow conversations in noisy places, turning up the television, or finding that people seem to mumble — it's worth having a check. Our hearing assessments are completely confidential, pressure-free, and conducted in a comfortable private setting. Early intervention leads to much better outcomes, and today's hearing aids are remarkably discreet. There's absolutely nothing to be embarrassed about.

The Vision Care Plan is a monthly membership that includes comprehensive eye examinations with advanced scans, 25% off spectacles and contact lenses, priority appointment booking, unlimited adjustments and minor repairs, and our unique open-door policy — meaning you can pop in anytime with any eye-related concern at no extra cost. It's the most comprehensive eye care plan available from any Norfolk practice.

Not at all. Our Hunstanton practice is fully equipped with the same state-of-the-art Optos and OCT scanning technology available at our other locations. You can access the highest standard of eye and hearing care right here in your local community — no need to travel to larger towns.
