Eye examination

The eyes are complex structures made up of thousands of components working together to provide vision. 
An eye examination allows many of these components to be tested to ensure they are working within the normal range.

The eye examination itself has also moved on with technological advances in screening and assessment. At Martin Reynolds Opticians we invest in the latest equipment to provide patients with the option of a comprehensive eye examination.
​
Computerised Test Chart -  this is displayed on a 1080p screen and allows a diverse range of visual assessment charts to be used.
Digital Slit Lamp – Our new Slit Lamp Microscope has the latest digital camera attachment to record and show patients any lesions on the front section of the eye.
Corneal Topographer – The corneal topographer allows visualisation of the curvature of the cornea. Due to the transparency of the cornea it is impossible to assess the curvature without this device. Irregular curvatures can be due to certain eye diseases which could be better managed once corneal topography is performed. We also use this device for complex contact lens fitting including OrthoK.
Visual Field Analyser – our new Henson 9000 visual field analyser is the latest piece of equipment to furnish our consulting room. This device measures the extent and sensitivity of the visual field. There are a number of tests we can perform from basic screening to in-depth analysis.
Optical Coherence Tomography - Your eyes can now be examined in previously unimaginable detail, as we can actually see below the surface! Hopefully you have previously had photographs taken of the back of your eyes - the retina. The OCT will take a more detailed photograph in the same way, giving us a 3D, cross-sectional scan of the retina in one sitting.

It is non-invasive, painless and quick!   The images are stored for future reference, and compared to your next scan to monitor the health of your eyes. If you would like to experience the OCT please let us know at the time of booking as this test requires additional time.
