Our Expertise
Auto-Refractometry
Measures the eye’s refractive error automatically to help determine an accurate starting point for vision correction
Slit-Lamp Biomicroscopy
Provides a magnified, illuminated view of the anterior eye structures for diagnosing corneal, lens, and eyelid conditions
Retinoscopy
A manual technique used to assess refractive status by observing light reflexes from the retina
Ophthalmoscopy
Allows direct visualization of the retina, optic nerve, and internal ocular structures to detect diseases such as glaucoma and retinopathy
Vision Chart Testing
Uses standardized charts like Snellen or LED digital displays to evaluate visual acuity and detect vision loss
Lensometry
Measures the optical power of eyeglass lenses to verify prescriptions and assess lens accuracy.
