This high resolution microscope captures images of the front third of the eye including the eyelids, tear film, cornea, iris, and lens. It is used to capture images, measure and map these structures to identify any health concerns or damages. This allows us to show you what’s happening to your eyes.

Tonometry is designed to measure the fluid pressure in the eyes, important for assessing Glaucoma risk.

At Gareth Edwards Optometrist, we have a selection of tonometers for measuring intraocular pressure.  We commonly use an iCare Tonometer which very gently measures the pressure without using any drops.  Sometimes we can choose to use an Applanation Tonometer, if more accuracy is required, during which the patient sees a small, blue light rather than using a puff of air.

This service takes non-invasive high resolution cross-sectional images of the retina to differentiate between the multiple layers of the Retina and to measure retinal thickness. We use this imaging technology for the early detection of retinal diseases and conditions.

We provide Optical Coherence Tomography and Retinal photography onsite in our Toowoomba Practice at affordable rates.

Our Visual Fields machine allows us to accurately assess your peripheral or side vision. This is particularly useful to assess conditions such as Glaucoma, brain injury and Stroke, as well as for assessing fitness to drive.
