In order to provide our patients with the best in ophthalmic care we offer a number of state-of-the-art diagnostic and treatment capabilities at The Ophthalmic Center.

• Argon Laser
• Yag Laser
• VISX Star S4 ActiveTrak Excimer Laser System with Wavecan Technology and Iris Registration
• Cosmetic Lid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)
• BOTOX® COSMETIC and Facial Aesthetic Enhancements
• Orbscan IIz Multidimensional corneal topography system
• Optomap Retinal Exam

Heidelberg Retina Tomograph (HRT)

This system combines a laser scanning camera and specialized software that evaluates the optic nerve. The HRT measures the size, depth and shape of the optic nerve and is especially useful when detecting small changes over time. This is an indispensable tool to provide our patients with an important baseline measurement or to confirm your diagnosis.

Wavefront Technology (VISX WavePrint™)

This is the next generation in refractive diagnostics: an objective method of measuring the entire optical system. A Hartmann-Shack sensor containing thousands of tiny lenslets captures the displaced light rays as they exit the pupil. When calculated against the mathematical ideal, this produces the most exact measurement of refractive error and higher order aberration (HOA’s) obtainable today, assisting our doctors in achieving superior refractive accuracy.

   
Bausch& Lomb Orbscan IIz™ Corneal Topography System

The Orbscan IIz is a multidimensional corneal topography diagnostic system that provides a complete analysis of the eye's corneal optical system by utilizing slit scanning technology. The optical acquisition head   scans the eye using light slits that are projected, providing 9000 data points. The result is a very accurate picture of the cornea that is used to     rule out underlying problems such as very thin corneas and keratoconus   which, may contraindicate elective refractive lasik surgery.The Orbscan IIz  can also be used to measure corneal thickness and map the cornea for a more accurate contact lens fitting assessment. 

The Humphrey® Field Analyzer

This state-of-the-art parameter provides fast, accurate results by combining the accuracy of Goldmann standard stimuli with sophisticated computer technology. Screening and threshold tests include glaucoma, retinal, neurological, macular retina and advanced glaucoma capabilities.

B-Scan and A-Scan Technology

We provide the technology necessary to gain an unobstructed view of the retina, significant in determining the presence of detachments, hemorrhages, and tumors. Ultrasound evaluation has always been an integral step in the evaluation of a patient’s pre-surgical fitness at the center.

Pachymetry Evaluation

According to the latest studies in ocular hypertension, doctors have determined that corneal thickness plays a significant role in its evaluation. It is now suggested that patients who are glaucoma suspects have pachymetry done to help in determining whether treatment should commence.

Panoramic 200® Retinal Imaging System

The optomap retinal exam produces the most comprehensive image of the retina without pupil dilation. This allows us to perform a more thorough and comfortable exam than was previously possible. The result is that we can detect retinal problems including macular degeneration, glaucoma,retinal holes or detachments, and systemic diseases such as diabetes, stroke, and high blood pressure. Experience with this technology has already led to improved disease detection and has possibly prevented vision loss and blindness in several patients.
