The phoropter is a machine used to help accurately determine a patient’s glasses and contact lens prescription. As you look through the phoropter, the doctor will show you a series of lenses asking you to choose between choices “1” or “2”. Together, you’ll accurately determine your prescription for the sharpest vision possible.
This device shines a light into the eye that bounces from the back of the eye to the front giving an accurate digital measurement of prescription and topographical map of a detailed shape and curve of your cornea, the transparent part of the eye that refracts light and covers the iris and pupil. It’s used to accurately and comfortably fit contact lenses to the eye and to diagnose astigmatism.
Tonometry measures the intraocular pressure inside the eyes, and is used to screen for glaucoma, a disease that causes damage to the optic nerve. iCare Tonometry is the absolute latest in technology which No-Air-Puff technology to very elegantly and comfortably check for glaucoma without eye drops or Air-puff.
Plus, since your eyes weren’t dilated, after the exam you can go about the rest of your day after the exam without worrying about sensitivity to light or difficulties focusing.
OPTOMAP Retinal Exam
Annual eye exams are vital to maintaining your vision and overall health. We offer the Optomap® Retinal Exam as an important part of our eye exams. The Optomap® Retinal Exam produces an image that is as unique as you fingerprint and provides us with a wide view to look at the health of your retina. The retina is the part of your eye that captures the image of what you are looking at, similar to film in a camera.
Our office carries the latest in Optos technology:
Many eye problems can develop without you knowing. You may not even notice any change in your sight. But, diseases such as macular degeneration, glaucoma, retinal detachments or tumors, and other health problems such as diabetes and high blood pressure can be seen with a thorough exam of the retina.
The new Daytona Optomap® Retinal Exam provides:
The Optomap® Retinal Exam is fast, easy, and comfortable for all ages. To have the exam, you simply look into the device one eye at a time and you will see a comfortable flash of light to let you know the image of your retina has been taken. The Optomap® image is shown immediately on a computer screen so we can review it with you.
The Ophthalmoscope is an instrument that your doctor uses to examine the inside of your eye. Once your eyes are dilated, your doctor may use an ophthalmoscope or BIO and other lenses to check for cataracts, retinal problems, damaged blood vessels, glaucoma, diabetes, high blood pressure and macular degeneration.
A scanning laser used to analyze the layers of the retina and optic nerve for any signs of eye disease, similar to an OCT scan of the eye. It works using light without radiation, and is essential for early diagnosis of glaucoma, macular degeneration and diabetic retinal disease.
With an OCT scan, doctors are provided with color-coded, cross-sectional images of the retina. These detailed images are revolutionizing early detection and treatment of eye conditions such as wet and dry age-related macular degeneration, glaucoma, retinal detachment and diabetic retinopathy.
An OCT scan is a noninvasive, painless test. It is performed in about 10 minutes right in our office. Feel free to contact our office to inquire about an OCT at your next appointment.
Our practice has been radically transformed by digital technology – iPads have transformed our daily lives and the way we communicate and the way we practice. We’ve invested in the latest Electronic Health Records (EHR) technology to help improved patient communication, records accuracy, and E-Prescribing saving our patients time in our office and at their Pharmacy.
• Rx Restasis or Steroids
RESTASIS® is the only eye drop that helps increase your eyes’ natural ability to produce tears, which may be reduced by inflammation due to Chronic Dry Eye disease. Topical steroids are also another way to combat ocular surface inflammation.
• Tear Supplements and Artificial Tears
Supplemenating tears with OTC Artificial tears, may provide temporary relief. Additions of Omega-3 Fish oil and or Flax seed oil can also improve the quality of your tears.
• Punctal Tear Plugs
Plugs are gently inserted to plug the ducts that drain tears from your eyes. This conserves the small amount of tears you have remaining on the eye, rather than draining into the tear duct. This painless quick procedure is performed by your eye doctor in the office and often yields amazing results.
