We use the most up-to-date technology to ensure the best eye care possible. Here are some of the different types of tests and equipment you may experience on a visit to our Practice.
Advanced Technology
- The Ocular Response Analyzer (ORA) is the only instrument capable of measuring Corneal Hysteresis (CH); an indication of the biomechanical properties of the cornea.
- The auto-refractor is a digital refractor that works much the same way as the old-fashioned phoropter.
- Reichert 7, Reichert Technologies’ seventh generation non-contact tonometer, is the most user-friendly NCT ever.
- M22™ is a modular multi-application platform for the treatment of over 30 skin conditions and hair removal. Used by physicians around the world, M22™ enables you to treat a vast variety of patients and conditions with excellent outcomes.
- Today’s eyes work hard. In work and leisure, busy people are using their near vision more than ever, especially with digital devices. When focusing up close, the disparity between comfortable vision and required vision can cause painful symptoms.
- The optomap is fast, easy, and comfortable for anyone. The entire image process consists of you looking into the device one eye at a time. The optomap images are shown immediately on a computer screen so we can review it with you.
- If you’ve ever had a comprehensive eye examination, chances are you’ve had a slit lamp exam. Slit lamp tests are designed to help your eye doctor magnify and examine the eye from front to back.
- A visual field test measures the range of your peripheral or “side” vision to assess whether you have any blind spots (scotomas), peripheral vision loss, or visual field abnormalities.
- iCare tonometers are based on unique, patented rebound technology, in which a very light and small probe is used to make momentary contact with the cornea.
- An Optical Coherence Tomography scan (commonly referred to as an OCT scan) is the latest advancement in imaging technology that performed in about 10 minutes right in our office.
