Digital Retinal Photography

Digital Retinal Screening technology allows us to take high resolution digital photographs of the interior portion of your eye called the retina.

This technology can greatly aid the optometrist’s ability to accurately diagnose and document diseases.  It also provides a baseline for comparison with previous and future visits.

Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT)

OCT is a non-invasive imaging test that uses light waves to take cross-section pictures of your retina. With OCT, your optometrist can see each of the retina’s distinctive layers. This allows your optometrist to map and measure their thickness. These measurements help with diagnosis and provide treatment guidance for glaucoma and diseases of the retina such as Macular Degeneration.

Glaucoma Screening

New technology allows us to measure the pressure in your eyes without using drops or the dreaded “air puff” test. Glaucoma is a symptomless disease that can cause blindness, and your exam includes screening for this “silent thief” of sight.

Orthokeratology – an alternative to refractive surgery

Orthokeratology or “ortho-k” is the process of reshaping the eye with specially-designed rigid gas permeable contact lenses.

This is an option available for mild to moderate myopia and low astigmatism.

Before bedtime, you insert the reshaping lenses. As you sleep, these ortho-k lenses will mould and flatten the shape of your cornea gently, thereby correcting refractive error. Upon awakening, you simply remove the lenses to enjoy crystal-clear vision all day long.

Myopia Control for children

Myopia (shortsightedness) are on the rise, and with it an increased risk of various pathologies.

Myopia control is very beneficial to children, as it keeps the condition from getting worse as they age.

Our optometrist seek to slow the progression of myopia in children by using the latest research-based treatments for controlling myopia.

Diagnosis and Treatment of Eye disease and infection

We are licensed to prescribe medication and treat eye disease and eye infections.

If your  optometrist finds a problem that requires specialty care, we will refer you to the appropriate specialist.

Post-operative care for eye disease

We work closely with the hospitals and eye specialists to provide pre- and post-operative care for cataract surgery and other conditions.

Eye emergencies and foreign body removals

When something is wrong, don’t wait.

We provide care for eye injuries, pink eye or other eye infection, allergies, flashes and floaters and eye pain.

Irlen Screening Assessment

Irlen Syndrome is a visual processing disorder, rather than a vision problem. It affects reading and writing-base activities with children and adults seeing the printed page differently from proficient readers. Symptoms include a slow reading rate, inefficient reading, poor reading comprehension, strain, fatigue and an inability to do continuous reading. Students with Irlen Sydrome often appear bright but fail to produce to a level considered appropriate, and may have been labelled as “dumb”, “stupid” or “lazy”. Treatment employs the use of coloured filters or coloured overlays.
