Regular eye exams contribute to overall health and wellbeing

Modern technology makes a real difference

Eye sight is precious… so why does conventional eye examination techniques enable a clinician to see only 20 to 25 per cent of the retina?

These eye exams are sometimes uncomfortable especially for young and older patients.

The Eye Place uses the very latest in eye testing technology. The Optomap examines up to 80% of the retina in a comfortable, painless, non-invasive process that takes a fraction of a second taking producing a detailed image of the back of the eye.

So why choose an Optomap eye exam?

Optomap is a complete package in terms of eyecare and is an important tool for the screening and diagnosis of a whole range eye problems. It can also indicate evidence of non-eye diseases, such as diabetes, hypertension and certain cancers. An image is taken of your retina which you are able to view instantly and from which we can determine the best course of action. If you look after your eyes, your eyes will look after you. This is fact. So we thought – why not take this to another level?
