Our Advanced Technology for Your Family
We use state-of-the-art technology for precise and accurate care, giving you peace of mind about your family's vision health:
- Fundus photography: We use this to take detailed photos of the back of the eye, which is essential for tracking your eye health over time.
- Visual Fields and Perimetry: This advanced testing helps us measure the functionality of visual perception over your entire field of view, similar to a hearing test for your eyeballs.
- OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography): This technology generates a 3D image of the eye's internal structures. It is particularly useful for managing conditions like glaucoma and macular degeneration.
- OPTOS (Ultra-Wide-Field Retinal Scanning): This is a total game-changer, allowing us to see up to 200 degrees into the far periphery of the retina where serious changes can take place.
- A-Scan: This tool accurately measures the axial length of the eye. It is used for calculations for Cataract Surgery and is a key tool in Myopia Management.
- DNEye Biometry: This technology measures the unique characteristics of your eye. This enables the manufacture of more precise lens designs for your family's unique optical requirements.
Our two specialist ophthalmologists, Dr. Michael Slade and Associate Professor George Kong, consult at our practice fortnightly. They can assist with a range of conditions, including cataracts, glaucoma, oculoplastics, and pediatric management.
