At Stoney Creek Eye Care & Eyewear Boutique, we take a progressive approach to optometry. That’s why we’re not content to settle for outdated technology. We make a point of investing in the most advanced and cutting-edge imaging and diagnostic equipment available, giving us the best comprehensive and complete view of your overall eye health.
Experience our highly-advanced technology for yourself; request an appointment for your comprehensive eye exam.
Nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism are all examples of refractive errors. An autorefractor is a computer-based device that measures how light refracts as it passes through your cornea. Our autorefractor allows us to determine the extent of your refractive error and informs the strength of your prescription.
A keratometer is a device designed to measure the curvature of your cornea, which influences your eyeglass and contact lens prescription. Stoney Creek Eye Care & Eyewear Boutique uses an autokeratometer which is digitally-based and more precise.
Both autorefraction and autokeratometry are performed by the same device at our practice.
Blephex is used to treat the symptoms of blepharitis. Blepharitis is caused by improper eyelid hygiene, and can cause our eyelids to become red, sore, and inflamed and is one of the causes of dry eye. Blephex is an in-office procedure that allows your optometry team to gently cleanse your eyelids and remove any bacteria or debris that has built up before it causes irritation.
This painless procedure takes only a few minutes, and can dramatically reduce or even eliminate your blepharitis caused dry eye symptoms.
Many potentially serious eye diseases, like diabetic retinopathy and age-related macular degeneration, occur in the retina at the back of the eye. Digital retinal imaging gives us detailed photos of your retinal structure to help us diagnose and monitor any possibly significant changes to your retinal health.
Our Humphrey Field Analyzer evaluates the health of your peripheral vision to determine if there are any “blind spots”. You’ll be seated in front of a white screen and asked to focus straight ahead. Small lights will flash in different areas of the screen. While keeping your head still and maintaining your focus directly ahead of you, you’ll press a button every time you see a light. The instrument will map out your field of vision.
Our automated lensometer allows us to check the prescription in your current eyewear and determine whether the lenses have been properly positioned within your frames. Because this equipment is automated, it works faster than a traditional lensometer. This machine can also determine the UV protection of your lenses.
OptikamPad is specialized software that enhances and extends our opticians’ abilities. This software helps ensure that your eyewear is exactly right, from the fit of the frame to the size and positioning of different areas of your progressive lenses. Through OptikamPad, we can even show you the impact different filters and tints may have on your vision.
