Our office is equipped with the latest technology, allowing us to capture images of your eyes, map out your peripheral vision and monitor annually for any changes.
This instrument maps out a patient’s visual field and allows our doctors to screen for glaucoma or even neurological diseases. If diagnosed, visual field testing is used to monitor progression of glaucoma.
This specialized camera allows us to image and thus document most retinal findings. This technology is also helpful in educating our patients on what is happening inside of their eyes.
This medical imaging instrument allows our doctors to scan various ocular structures in more detail than ever before. Each OCT scan produces a high resolution, three-dimensional image. These images can detect subtle retinal or corneal irregularities which may go undetected through traditional examination techniques. This instrument is especially important for diagnosing and monitoring diseases such as glaucoma and macular degeneration.
This instrument allows our doctors to evaluate the health of the front of the eye as well as the inside of the eye including the retina. This is also a key instrument used for evaluating the fit of contact lenses.
Tonometry techniques allow our doctors to accurately measure the pressure inside of your eyes. San Dimas Optometry employs two techniques for this measurement. Non-Contact Tonometry acts as a screening tool for all patients while Golmann Applanation Tonometry is a more specialized industry standard.
Forma-I is a non-invasive radiofrequency treatment to address dry eye symptoms caused by Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD). A small and precise applicator delivers gentle heat to the delicate eye area, thereby targeting the underlying causes of meibomian gland dysfunction, such as gland blockages, and promoting improved blood circulation and gland function. The precise temperature melts the oil blockages in the glands, allowing the doctor to gently express and clear the glands. Radiofrequency thermal energy also promotes a process called neocollagensis, or the growth and repair of collagen. This helps rebuild and repair the meibomian glands, and results in smoother, tighter, and more youthful-looking skin. By stimulating gland activity and secretion, Forma-I radiofrequency treatment can help alleviate dry eye symptoms, including discomfort, blurred vision, and irritation, and improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and bags.
Lumecca Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment delivers targeted light energy to areas of the face, body, and delicate eye area, offering benefits for dry eye, inflammation, and pigmentation concerns. Light energy targets tiny inflammatory blood vessels just below the skin, reducing eyelid inflammation, rosacea, eyelash mites (demodex), and improving collagen synthesis, indirectly helping dry eye symptoms and associated discomfort. Additionally, Lumecca IPL’s ability to target pigmented areas can be utilized to address issues like hyperpigmentation, improving the aesthetic appearance around the eyes, areas of the face, and body.
