Complimentary Hearing Tests

Hearing loss often develops gradually, making it easy to miss the early signs. Regular hearing checks can help identify any changes sooner, allowing you to take action before they begin to affect your everyday life.

At Barna Opticians, we offer complimentary hearing assessments for patients aged 55 and over in a relaxed, welcoming environment. During your appointment, our audiologist will carry out a comprehensive hearing evaluation, explain your results clearly, and answer any questions you may have, with no pressure or obligation.

Whether you've noticed conversations becoming more difficult or simply want to stay on top of your hearing health, we're here to help you hear with confidence.

Ear Wax Removal

Excess ear wax can lead to blocked ears, reduced hearing, discomfort, or ringing in the ears. Our professional ear wax removal service uses microsuction, a safe, gentle, and highly effective technique performed by our qualified audiologist.

Unlike traditional ear syringing, microsuction doesn't use water, making it an excellent option for those with sensitive ears or a history of ear problems.

Why choose microsuction?

  • Safe and precise treatment
  • Comfortable, quick procedure
  • No water or mess
  • Immediate improvement in hearing for many patients

This experience sparked her interest in audiology and healthcare, inspiring her to pursue a degree at Queen Margaret University, where she graduated in 2023 and qualified as a Hearing Aid Dispenser. Additionally, Julie is certified in wax removal via microsuction.

Following her qualification, she worked in the private sector for over a year, gaining valuable experience. Now, she is excited to join a completely independent store equipped with the latest technology and testing systems. Julie aims to create a warm and welcoming atmosphere in her clinic, where patients feel comfortable and know their concerns are being heard.

In her spare time, Julie enjoys taking her dog for walks. She also has a strong interest in Gaelic Athletic Association (GAA) sports, playing camogie and, more recently, joining a ladies' football team.
