Diagnostic Technology
Corrective lenses are only a recommended treatment or prescription provided by optometrists. The true technology in optometry can be found in the evaluation and diagnostic equipment that optometrists use to check your vision, assess the health of your eyes and determine your overall eye and vision health.
In upcoming weeks we will profile much of this technology to help you understand the processes that are involved in a truly comprehensive eye exam - from refraction and beyond.
