A deeper insight into your vision

Even the smallest symptom will never be ignored or neglected at Vision Clinic.

During your routine eye examination, the simplest comment or complaint about your visual experiences may prompt our optometrists to investigate your symptoms further. From headaches and flashes and floaters to difficulty driving, our visual field tests hold clues not only to your lens prescription but also into your overall health.

Detecting & diagnosing underlying conditions

These tests are simple, quick and non-evasive, yet can reveal a variety of previously undiagnosed health conditions. Because parts of your central nervous system control your visual field, our tests can detect the following conditions:

  • Glaucoma
  • Retinitis Pigmentosa
  • Stroke
  • Brain tumours
  • Multiple sclerosis
  • Diabetes
  • Hypertension
  • Head trauma

Our method of evaluation will depend on the symptoms exhibited by the patient, from simple screening to computerised testing. Our experienced optometrists are professionally trained in visual field interpretation and if necessary, can refer you for further assessments.

Maintaining and monitoring your health

If during a visual field test an ocular condition such as glaucoma is detected, Vision Clinic will conduct in-depth follow-ups to monitor the progression and severity of your condition. Repetition of the visual field tests can help us to manage your condition and determine whether any changes need to be made to your current medication.
