Eye Health MOT

• Vision testing (unaided and corrected) at distance, intermediate and near

This assesses how well you can see at distance, intermediate and near, both with and without glasses or contact lenses. It helps us understand your day-to-day visual performance and identify any changes or limitations that may affect activities such as driving, screen use or reading.

• Full refraction

A full refraction determines the exact prescription required to optimise your vision. By carefully measuring how light focuses in your eyes, this test identifies short-sightedness, long-sightedness and astigmatism, and helps guide recommendations for vision correction or further investigation.

• Visual field test (24-2 Humphrey)

This test maps your peripheral (side) vision and checks for any areas of reduced sensitivity. It is particularly important for detecting and monitoring conditions such as glaucoma, neurological disorders and retinal disease, even before symptoms are noticed.

• OPD-3 analysis

The OPD-3 provides a detailed assessment of how light travels through the eye, measuring optical quality, aberrations and visual performance. It helps identify subtle visual issues that may not be detected by standard eye tests and supports highly personalised treatment planning.

• MS39 corneal scan with keratoconus screening and multiple image report

This advanced corneal scan creates a detailed map of the shape, thickness and curvature of the cornea. It includes dedicated screening for keratoconus and other corneal conditions, alongside a multiple image report to support accurate diagnosis and long-term eye health monitoring.

• HD Analyzer

The HD Analyzer evaluates the quality of vision beyond standard visual acuity, measuring how light scatter and clarity are affected by the cornea and lens. It is particularly useful in detecting early lens changes, such as cataracts, and assessing overall visual quality.

• IOLMaster

The HD Analyzer evaluates the quality of vision beyond standard visual acuity, measuring how light scatter and clarity are affected by the cornea and lens. It is particularly useful in detecting early lens changes, such as cataracts, and assessing overall visual quality.

• OCT scans of:

  • Macula – This scan provides high-resolution cross-sectional images of the macula, the central part of the retina responsible for detailed vision. It allows early detection and monitoring of conditions such as macular degeneration, swelling or retinal disease.

• • Optic nerve fibre layer – This scan measures the thickness of the optic nerve fibres, which are critical for transmitting visual information to the brain. It plays a key role in detecting and monitoring glaucoma and optic nerve damage, often before symptoms appear.

• Ultra-widefield retinal imaging (Clarus / Optos)

This imaging captures a wide view of the retina, allowing examination of the central and peripheral retina in a single image. It helps identify retinal conditions such as tears, degeneration, diabetic changes or inflammation that may otherwise go unnoticed.

• Tonoref (intraocular pressure and pachymetry)

The Tonoref measures the pressure inside the eye (intraocular pressure) and the thickness of the cornea (pachymetry). These measurements are essential for assessing the risk of glaucoma and ensuring eye pressure readings are interpreted accurately, supporting early detection and long-term eye health monitoring.

• Dilated eye examination

During this examination, eye drops are used to gently dilate (widen) the pupils, allowing a thorough assessment of the retina, optic nerve and internal structures of the eye. This enables early detection of conditions such as retinal disease, optic nerve damage and other underlying eye health concerns that may not be visible during a routine examination.

• Consultant ophthalmologist examination

A comprehensive examination performed by a consultant ophthalmologist, bringing together the results of all diagnostic tests. Your consultant will assess overall eye health, discuss findings in detail, provide a clear clinical report, and outline any recommendations or next steps tailored to your individual needs.
