OCT / Eye Scan
OCT / Eye Scans: Investing In Your Vision
At Vision Clinic, we are constantly investing in cutting-edge technologies to ensure we are providing our patients with the highest level of optical care.
That is why we now offer an advanced eye examination using an innovative, hospital-quality OCT scan, giving an in-depth insight into the overall health of your eyes without the need for dilating eye drops.
A Quick & Painless Procedure with Powerful Results
Our advanced eye examination is non-invasive and completely painless. The technology can be used for patients of all ages and the scan itself takes a matter of seconds. Despite the speed and simplicity of the test, our OCT scan gives a complex, layered image of the structure of your eye in exceptionally high resolution.
The main benefit of this advanced tool is the early detection of potentially sight-threatening diseases, such as:
- Diabetes
- Glaucoma
- Macular Degeneration
- Macular Edema
- Macular Hole
- Vitreous detachment
As many eye conditions can develop without any noticeable symptoms, the advanced eye examination can help our optometrists monitor any subtle changes over time and diagnose and manage any conditions that may develop.
Providing Continuity of Care from Scan to Solution
Vision Clinic’s expert optometrists are here for you throughout your eye health journey. Unlike many optical retail chains, our support staff do not perform the OCT scans. Instead, our experienced optometrists will quickly conduct the test and discuss the results with you immediately, ensuring that you leave your advanced eye examination with complete confidence and peace of mind.
It is recommended that if you are over the age of 25, or at a higher risk of developing certain eye conditions, then you should book an advanced eye examination appointment.
If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to give our friendly team a call on 0191 274 5385.
