I was experiencing flurries in my vision which resulted in my booking an appointment on a whim (with... out active insurance). They conducted a lot of thorough tests, including what I believe was a retinal scan. The cost was not bad for the amount of testing (~$150) and gave me great ease of mind. Will definitely come back!
