Digital retinal imaging

Where clinically appropriate, retinal imaging can document the back of the eye and support comparison over time.

Myopia monitoring

Myopia monitoring includes prescription tracking, clinical measurements and discussion of eye-growth risk factors relevant to the individual child.

Advanced children's eye examinations

Children's vision checks may consider prescription, focusing, binocular vision, school symptoms, family history and myopia risk.

Glaucoma screening technology

Glaucoma risk assessment can include eye pressure, optic nerve assessment, imaging or visual field testing depending on available equipment and clinical need.

Contact lens assessment

Contact lens care considers prescription, fit, corneal health, tear film, comfort, wearing schedule and safe handling.

Common questions

Does technology replace an eye test?

No. Technology supports the optometrist's clinical assessment and explanation.

Will every test be used at every appointment?

No. The optometrist selects tests according to clinical need and explains relevant findings during the appointment.

Can technology help monitor myopia?

Monitoring tools can help track changes over time, but the review plan depends on the child's clinical findings.
