Our optometrists offer comprehensive eye examination which includes:

​

• Review history in general and eye health

• Vision and Refraction Assessment (lazy eye / optical prescription)

• Squint / Crossed-eyes Assessment

• Color Vision Assessment

• Intra-ocular pressure (glaucoma screening)

• Ocular Health Assessment

• Digital fundus photography

• Macular cross-sectional scan OCT

• Axial length measurement AXL (optical biometry)

• Optometric Consultation

1. Vision and Refraction Assessment

Our centre provides eye test for adults and children from four years old. The visual acuity (sight clarity) and refractive error (myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism or presbyopia) are tested. For children under 10 years old, base on conditions, professional optometrists will perform short or long cycloplegic refraction for more accurate result.

Based on suggestion from optometrist, parent may choice whether to have eyedrop for cycloplegic refraction for children.

2. Squint / Crossed-eyes Assessment

By assessment of co-ordination of the two eyes , squint and other extra-ocular muscles problems will be found out. The binocular co-ordination of eyes can be reinforced by visual training management.

​

​

3. Color Vision Assessment

Identifying any color vision deficiency, consultation and advice will be provided. 

Tailor-make color deficiency rehabilitation devices, such as glasses and contact lenses, to improve quality of life.

​

4. Ocular Health Assessment + Digital Fundus Photography

Ocular health assessment on cornea, crystalline lens, retina, macula and eye pressure etc. would be carried out by the use of a series of professional ophthalmic equipment. Dilation of the pupils (with eye drops) for peripheral retinal examination would be conducted if needed. From two and half years old toddlers, mydriatic or cycloplegic drops would be used on indication. By use of digital fundus photography, the conditions, such as diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, macula degeneration, degenerative myopia can be better monitored.

5. Macular cross-sectional scan OCT

We will use Optical coherence tomographer (OCT) to take cross-section scans of your central retina (macula) for detail examination.

​

Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) is an optical signal acquisition and processing method. It is an ‘optical ultrasound’,to provide cross-sectional images. Optometrists of EYEhk with OCT can provide comprehensive assessment and reveal conditions such as diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, macula edema, multiple sclerosis, etc.

6. Axial length (AXL) measurement (Optical biometry) 

​

Simply speaking axial length (AXL) is the size of eyeball. By use of optical biometry, the length of eyeball can be measured. AXL has high correlation with myopia. In general, 1mm increase of AXL implies -2.50D worsening of myopia. In addition, longer axial length suggests higher risk of future eye diseases.

​

Optometrists of EYEhk with AXL measurement can provide more comprehensive assessment and reveal trend of myopia development and risk of future eye diseases etc.
