Full Eye Examinations

Eye Examinations

Although our optometrists carry out all the requisite standard procedures during every eye examination, they also enjoy the freedom when examining our Eyeplan & private patients, to carry out whichever more extensive tests they deem necessary.

These may include:-

  • OCT* (Optical Coherance Tomography)
  • Fundus photography
  • Pupil dilation
  • Digital slit lamp examination with image capture of the front & inside of the eye
  • Binocular indirect ophthalmoscopy
  • Full threshold visual field screening
  • Contrast sensitivity measurement
  • Perkins and Goldmann tonometry

OCT (Ocular Coherence Tomography)

Retinal Photography

OCT or Ocular Coherence Tomography is the latest 'state of the art' eye scanner.

It takes high resolution cross sections and 3d images of your retina, optic nerve and cornea allowing us to asses every individual layer of each structure. This results in earlier diagnosis of diseases such as macular degeneration, glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy and allows us to monitor your eyes more accurately than ever before.

The scan takes a few seconds and is completely harmless, painless and non invasive. The amazing images are available to be viewed immediately and will be talked through with you by your optometrist.

It is now available in both Southsea and Portchester practices as part of the eyeplan, private and enhanced NHS examinations. For more information click here

NHS eye examinations

We offer NHS eye examinations to all those that are entitled, which include all required checks, but not necessarily the supplementary procedures listed above. However, most of our NHS patients enjoy the benefits from these extra tests by upgrading to our 'enhanced examination' for a small supplementary fee.
