Services
Optomap Eye Examinations
Our Optomap examinations provide ultra-widefield retinal imaging, capturing 200 degrees of the retina in a single scan. This non-invasive technology enables early detection of ocular pathologies and systemic diseases. Ideal for comprehensive eye health assessments, it complements traditional eye exams with detailed digital records for long-term monitoring.
Intuitive Colorimetry
This specialized assessment identifies optimal tinted lenses to alleviate visual stress symptoms. Using the Intuitive Colorimeter MK.3, we determine precise colour combinations that improve reading comfort and reduce light sensitivity. Particularly beneficial for individuals with dyslexia, migraines, or sensory processing difficulties, offering personalized solutions for enhanced visual performance.
OCT Eye Scan
Our Zeiss OCT scans provide cross-sectional views of retinal layers, enabling precise diagnosis of conditions like macular degeneration and glaucoma. This high-resolution imaging technology allows for early intervention and monitoring of ocular health changes over time. Recommended for comprehensive eye examinations, particularly for patients over 40 or with existing eye conditions.
Contact Lens Consultancy
We offer tailored contact lens solutions for various vision requirements, including specialist fittings for complex prescriptions. Our consultants provide comprehensive training on lens handling and care, ensuring comfortable wear and optimal vision correction. Follow-up appointments ensure long-term suitability and eye health maintenance.
Eye Examinations
Our comprehensive eye exams combine traditional techniques with advanced technology to assess visual acuity and eye health. The process includes refraction testing, ophthalmoscopy, and digital imaging to detect vision changes and potential health issues. Recommended annually for adults and as part of children's routine healthcare.
