Diagnostic Tests

New, high technology instruments allow for earlier and more accurate diagnosis and assist in the management of various eye diseases.


Spectralis Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT)

  • Invaluable in early diagnosis and managment of most eye diseases
  • Glaucoma
  • Diabetic retinopathy
  • Macular Degeneration
  • Cornea Disease
  • Neurological disease
  • Drug related retinal toxicity

Automated Visual Fields

  • Glaucoma
  • Neurological disease
  • Retinal toxicity

Digital Fundus Imaging

  • Baseline findings
  • External disease (lids and area)
  • Cataract
  • Diabetic eye disease
  • Hypertensive eye disease
  • Macular degeneration
  • Retinal vascular disease
  • Eye cancers (eg.,choroidal melanoma)

 

Ultrasonic Pachymetry

  • Glaucoma
  • Corneal disease (eg., keratoconus)
  • Refractive surgery

 


 

iCare "No Puff" Tonometry

  • Glaucoma screening without the "air puff"
  • Non-invasive

Heidelberg Retinal Tomography (HRT)

  • This is like a CAT scan of the eye
  • Crucial in the early diagnosis and management of Glaucoma
  • Other diseases of the optic nerve
