SPECIALISED SERVICES
We combine some of the best & latest technology, along with out experience & knowledge, which are all designed to help detect, monitor & hopefully prevent eye disease.
Each eye examination includes 3D OCT scans and Optomap wide-field imaging. OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography) is an impressive way of being able to observe below the surface of your retina.OCT provides a radiation-free scan of your retina and creates a 3-dimensional image of the layers of your retina.
Myopia, short-sightedness, is where a person’s eyes are focussed close up meaning things further away are out of focus and blurry to see. The more myopic a person is the closer their focal length and the more blurry long distance vision is. The more myopic an eye the higher risk of sight complications later in life. We can prescribe and recommend treatments to reduce this progression and protect the eyes
