Eye Testing & Technology

Precision you can see the machinery behind.

A standard vision test reads a chart. Ours runs the same reading through an auto-refractometer, a phoropter, and eighteen further checks — then dispenses your lenses on equipment built to match that precision.

Diagnostic Technology

Precision starts before the optometrist even sits down.

Every exam begins on our digital auto-refractometer, which takes an objective baseline reading of your eyes' focusing power in seconds — removing the guesswork a purely manual exam can carry. From there, our optometrist refines that baseline on a phoropter, the instrument you look through as we ask "which is clearer, one or two?", dialling in your exact sphere, cylinder and axis rather than rounding to the nearest common power.

1

Auto-refractometer: an objective, repeatable starting reading in under a minute — your exam begins from data, not a guess.

2

Phoropter refinement: your optometrist refines that baseline lens by lens until your prescription is exact.

3

Retinoscopy cross-check: a manual light-reflex check confirms the digital reading, catching anything an instrument alone might miss.

4

Binocular balance: both eyes are checked working together, not just one at a time, so the pair feels balanced in daily use.

Automated Precision Dispensing

Your lenses, cut to the millimetre.

A prescription is only as good as the lens that carries it. Once your frame is chosen, our lab uses digital edging equipment to map its exact shape and curve, then cuts each lens so the optical centre lines up precisely with your pupillary distance and fitting height — the same measurements captured earlier in your exam. Get that alignment even slightly wrong and a correct prescription can still feel off; get it right, and the lens simply disappears into how you see.

1

Digital frame tracing: maps your exact frame shape and curvature before a single lens is cut.

2

Optical centre alignment: each lens is positioned to your measured pupillary distance and fitting height, not a generic average.

3

Edge-to-frame precision: automated edging cuts a bevel that seats cleanly into your frame, with no gaps or pressure points.

4

Final verification: every finished pair is checked against your original prescription before it's handed over.

The Full Process

All 20 steps, in order.

Four stages, twenty checks — from your first question to a plain-language walkthrough of your results.

PHASE 01

History & Preliminary Assessment

1

Patient History Review

Vision concerns, medical history and daily visual demands.

2

Visual Acuity Test

Standard Snellen chart reading to measure sharpness of vision.

3

Cover Test

Checks eye alignment and detects muscle imbalances.

4

Pupil Examination

Assesses pupil reflex and response to light.

PHASE 02

Refraction & Prescription

5

Auto-Refractometer

Digital baseline reading of your refractive error.

6

Retinoscopy

Manual assessment of how light reflects off the retina.

7

Subjective Refraction

Fine-tuning your exact power with "which is clearer" comparisons on the phoropter.

8

Cylinder & Axis Check

Precisely measures astigmatism correction, if present.

9

Binocular Vision Test

Confirms both eyes focus together comfortably.

PHASE 03

Eye Health Screening

10

Slit Lamp Examination

Magnified inspection of the cornea, iris and lens.

11

Intraocular Pressure

A quick screening check for early signs of glaucoma.

12

Colour Vision Test

Detects colour blindness or colour-vision deficiencies.

13

Depth Perception

Evaluates 3D vision and spatial judgement.

14

Peripheral Vision

Checks the full width of your field of view.

15

Retinal Health Check

Examines the back of the eye for early warning signs.

PHASE 04

Lifestyle & Precision Fitting

16

Near Point Convergence

Tests how well your eyes focus at close range.

17

Digital Lens Measurement

Precise pupillary distance and fitting-height capture.

18

Frame & Face Assessment

Matches frame shape and size to your face and prescription.

19

Lifestyle Consultation

Screen time, driving and hobbies shape our lens recommendation.

20

Final Prescription Review

Optometrist sign-off and a plain-language walkthrough of your results.
