Our Equipment
At Strachan EyecarePlus we have always had a policy of continually upgrading our clinical equipment so that we have the very best technology available for assessing your vision and ocular health.
This means that in addition to “routine” vision testing, we will, on indication, conduct specialist testing of visual function, including:
- digital retinal photography – strongly recommended as a baseline on all patients
- computerised visual field testing and pachymetry, ultrasound corneal thickness measurement, for glaucoma investigation
- digital corneal topgraphy for contact lens fitting and assessing suitability for laser refractive surgery
- Ocular Coherence Tomography or OCT – this is a ‘state of the art’ instrument enabling amazing cross sectioning and 3D ocular imaging , similar to ultrasound imaging but using light wvaes rather than sound waves. OCT is invaluable for diagnosis and on-going monitoring of potentially devestating eye conditions such as such as macular degeneration, macular holes, glaucoma and diabetes.
