This is what sets us apart from all other practices
What to expect from our optometrists
Your optometrist will take time to get to know you, your general health and your family history. All this information helps us build a picture of your eye health, which also allows us to foresee any issues that you may face and advise accordingly. Our care is focused on preventing issues before they arise. In addition, we’ll get to know the demands on your vision, your lifestyle and hobbies, which will inform any recommendations we may make.
Using the most advanced technology available, we will perform a series of prescreening tests, to examine your eye health. The findings of these will then be shared and discussed when you meet your optometrist. At this stage we will also examine how well you see. All tests can be adapted taking into account age, ability and any anxieties, to ensure it’s a relaxing experience for all.
You should leave feeling reassured that you have had a thorough eye examination and with a clear understanding of your own eyes, both in terms of vision and eye health.
Your examination will include the following:
- Analysis of your history and symptoms
- Refraction (calculating your prescription)
- External eye examination
- Intra-ocular pressures (measurement of eye pressure)
- Suprathreshold fields (basic peripheral vision check)
- Advanced eyecare management recommendations
- Referral for further investigation if necessary
- Nutritional advice for healthy eyes and tears
Additional tests
- Retinal imaging using our state-of-the-art equipment
- Retinal deep range imaging using the Ocular Coherence Tomography
- Corneal Topography (if necessary)
- Corneal Pachymetry (measurement of thickness of cornea)
