Eye Examination
Our comprehensive eye examination will take approximately 30 minutes. During this time we will thoroughly assess any vision problems you have and detect any signs of eye disease.
During your examination a health history will also be taken. It is important for you to provide as much information as you can, regardless of how insignificant you might think it is.
The following areas will be assessed during the examination:
- General physical health
- Eye health
- Visual performance (Myopia, Hyperopia, Astigmatism)
- Colour vision
- Focusing ability (Presbyopia)
- Eye muscle control
- Amblyopia (lazy eye)
- Glaucoma
- Cataract
and other appropriate area for each individual.
Following the examination, we will explain the outcomes of the examination and discuss our recommendations regarding any needed preventive or corrective measures.
Eye disease can occur slowly and sometimes without any warning. If you have a family history of glaucoma, age-related macular degeneration, high blood pressure or diabetes, it is especially important that you have an eye examination on a regular basis.
As part of your eye health examination, we have a digital retinal camera which takes a clear image of the back of the eye. This is advanced technology The camera is a great diagnostic tool, which enhances the early detection of abnormalities
