​Visual Field Screening and Color Test

​

Visual field screening is used to detect glaucoma, an ocular condition that can gradually diminish a patient's peripheral vision without their immediate awareness. Changes in a patient's visual field can also indicate retinal issues, strokes, or brain tumors. We use a state-of-the-art wearable virtual reality headset to offer the most advanced visual field screening and color tests possible.

 

Color vision testing identifies patients who have congenital color vision deficiencies. In children, it's important for teachers and parents to be aware of these issues, as much learning is color-coded. For teenagers, normal color vision is a requirement for certain occupations, which may influence their career planning. Additionally, some ocular conditions can lead to acquired color vision problems.

 

Retinal Imaging

​

Obtaining a retinal screening photo provides the doctor with baseline information, allowing for the comparison of changes over time. Some retinal issues are also more apparent with a wider-angle view
of the retina. This screening can also help detect vascular changes associated with diabetes or hypertension. For early glaucoma detection, a side-by-side comparison of the optic discs is crucial.
