At Visioncare Optometry we believe in using the latest technology to ensure we, as Opticians, can provide you with the best eye care possible.
We have invested in the latest 3D Optical Coherence Tomography camera which allows not only the standard image that is seen in the Hospital Diabetic Eye Service but also has a facility to scan the retina to examine each layer of the retina.
In addition to the OCT we now use the Optomap giving a wide field image of the retina. The OCT gives a cross section of the central area, whereas the Optomap is a 2D image of the entire retina out to 200 degrees, far more than most instruments and lenses.
Here you can see the image of a healthy retina taken with the OCT camera. Each of the layer of the retina can be examined closely by our trained Optometrists.
Did you know that eating a balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals like omega-3 fatty acids can promote good eye health and reduce the risk of age-related vision problems? Maintaining healthy eyes is crucial for overall well-being.
