Eye Examination and Diagnoses
Macular Degeneration
Using the latest technology including retinal scanning and OCT, we are able to take an in depth look into your eyes and assess your eye health.
Glaucoma Exam
Diagnosis consists of having regular eye tests, which includes a pressure measurement and visual field testing to enable early detection of possible problems.
Keratoconus Exam
Keratoconus is a progressive eye disease in which the normally round cornea thins and begins to bulge into a cone-like shape, causing distorted vision. If detected, our optometrists can explain treatments available.
Diabetic Exam
The health of the retina is very dependent on a good blood supply to the eye. Regular eye tests, when diagnosed with Diabetes, will reduce risk of vision loss and blindness.
Childrens Vision
We provide specialised eye tests to make sure that any vision problems are detected and any learning difficulties related to vision are corrected.
