At Caprice Optical you can rest assured that a comprehensive eye examination provides an accurate assessment of your vision. Our Independent Optometrist uses the latest technology to establish the state of your vision and the health of your eyes.
This may include digital retinal imaging to evaluate the health of the back of the eye using a combined microscope and high resolution camera. The picture will show the retina, associated blood vessels and optic nerve head. By doing so, one can detect and monitor changes in diseases such as diabetes, high blood pressure, glaucoma, and macular degeneration. A comprehensive eye exam lasts for approximately half an hour and the optometrist will use a range of tests tailored to your individual needs. The Independent Optometrist provides a step-by-step explanation so you know exactly what is involved at each stage of the exam.
