Our advanced eye exams
For a small additional charge, you could enhance your eye exam with a diagnostic scan – either the OCT or Optomap scan. Both scans can help to detect the early stages of potentially dangerous eye conditions, such as macular degeneration and glaucoma, before your vision is compromised:
- OCT – combining the technologies of a CT and ultrasound scan, this produces a 3D scan of the back of your eye.
- Optomap – most tests can only capture 10-15% of your retinal image, but the Optomap sees 80% in one panoramic pass.
The scans available to you depend on the equipment available at your local Bayfields practice, so please just ask about availability.
