Auto Refraction
A refraction test is usually given as part of a routine eye examination. It may also be called a vision test. This test tells our optometrist or ophthalmologist exactly what prescription is required in your glasses or contact lenses.
A-Scan
It shows the retina (where light and images hit), the optic disk (a spot on the retina that holds the optic nerve, which sends information to the brain), and blood vessels. This helps our optometrist or ophthalmologist find certain diseases and check the health of your eyes.
Keratometry
This is a procedure used to measure the curvature of the cornea (corneal curvature with the aid of a device known as keratometer. No special preparation is required, on the part of the patient.
Pachymetry
A pachymeter is a medical device used to measure the thickness of the eye’s cornea. It is used prior to a Corneal Molding evaluation, LASIK surgery, and is useful in screening for patients suspected of developing glaucoma.
Corneal Topography
Corneal topography is a computer assisted diagnostic tool that creates a three-dimensional map of the surface curvature of the cornea. The cornea (the front window of the eye) is responsible for about 70 percent of the eye’s focusing power.
Anterior Segment Photography
Slit Lamp Anterior Segment Photography is documentation of microscopic and obscure details of the transparent, translucent and opaque structures of the anterior segment and surrounding areas of the eye.
FFA/ Posterior Segment Photography
The posterior segment is the portion of the eye behind the lens, and it primarily refers to the retina, the inner neural lining of the eye, but also includes the vitreous humor, choroid and optic nerve. … Posterior segment imaging refers to imaging these structures.
