We invest in your ocular health by investing in technology that accurately detects and diagnoses potential ocular issues. Thanks to the latest digital optometric technology, we can get the clearest picture of your eyes and diagnose ocular disease with even the faintest signs.
Digital retinal photography is a high-resolution imaging system that takes digital photographs of the inside of your eye, magnified by more than 1000x.
Our specially trained optometrists can detect the earliest signs of any abnormal eye conditions or diseases with these images. Some of the conditions include:
Retinal photography allows for a permanent and detailed record of your eye health. These images give our eye doctors the ability to compare your images over time, increasing the chances of detecting subtle changes in your eye health.
Optical coherence tomography is a non-invasive scanner that uses visible light waves to capture high-resolution cross-section images of your retina.
This state-of-the-art technology allows us to detect and diagnose numerous eye conditions at the earliest possible stage. Some of these conditions include:
We include this comprehensive testing in comprehensive eye exams for all adults between 19 and 64.
The area that you see without moving your head is known as your visual field. A visual field test assesses your peripheral vision, which gives the optometrist important information regarding the visual pathway from your eye to your brain.
During a visual field test, we measure:
Using an instrument called a frequency doubling technology (FDT), we can accurately test your peripheral vision in about a minute to discover any potential defects that may require further in-depth testing.
We may also use a high-tech machine called the Humphrey Visual Field Analyser, non-invasive technology that tests your visual field with a series of dim flashing lights. The test usually takes 10 minutes or less.
Visual field testing is vitally important for detecting eye diseases and health conditions such as:
Because of its importance, we do a screening visual field test on all of our adult patients as part of your comprehensive eye wellness exam.

We understand that as parents, especially new parents with their first child, it is easy to overthink and overreact when it comes to our children. Parenthood is full of constant new experiences, and we are bombarded by articles, videos, and other media telling us the importance of this check-up or that exam. We get it. […]

Unlike trips to the dentist or health checks with your doctor which we attend quite vigorously, annual eye exams are frequently overlooked as unimportant. “There’s nothing wrong with my eyesight” is a common reaction. In reality, there are many eye diseases and problems which do not show any early symptoms and will only become apparent […]
