Equipment

We have our own optical lens workshop with a state-of-the-art grinding wheel and numerous tools and microtools to achieve a perfect visual and aesthetic result, even for stronger corrections. If you need to change your prescription, you will only be without your frames for a short time. Our workshop is also equipped with an ultrasonic cleaner that cleans your frames and lenses to maximise coating durability.

Aside from finding optical centres and eye rotation centres (ERC), Visioffice 2 measures at least 15 other parameters related to visual behaviour, the frames and the physiology of your face. By collating these 3D measurements, we can fabricate a completely personalised lens. We can also photograph or take a video of you wearing your selected frames and send it to your friends or family to get their opinion.

A significant percentage of people correct their eyesight with contact lenses for aesthetic or practical reasons. The autorefractor keratometer is an essential device for ordering the appropriate contact lenses. The autorefractor keratometer takes so-called keratometric readings, measuring the size of the cornea and iris to aid in selecting the ideal contact lens. For expedience, we refer to the process as a curvature measurement, though it is not a completely accurate term.

Glaucoma is a group of eye diseases (glaucoma of various types) that damage the optic nerve which transfers an image from the eye to the brain. The tonometer measures intraocular pressure inside the eye, which is the main risk factor for developing glaucoma. Testing with the TonoCare Tonometer is painless as it does not come into direct contact with the eye and there is no need for a local anaesthetic. You feel a light “puff” of air and the accurate measurement is obtained immediately. It is part of your vision’s primary care, but is in no way a substitute for thorough examination by your ophthalmologist which includes a test of the optic nerve with a fundoscopy and visual field testing.
