Investing in
the latest technology
We don’t make comparisons with other opticians; but we do take great pride that it will be hard to find a better equipped practice than Eyesentials.
We have a sustained on-going programme to invest in the very latest technology and our history has shown we have very often been the first to adopt technology such as OCT advanced optical imaging as long ago as 2012.
Zeiss Humphrey’s field machine
OCT machine

Early detection of eye disease can be crucial in preserving our vision. OCT allows our opticians to literally look inside your retina for earlier signs of a problem.
Slit lamp
A specialist microscope with a bright light that is used during your eye test to allow our optometrist to look closely at the front and inside of the eye. It enables us to check for any diseases or abnormalities.
Zeiss Humphrey
field machine
A machine that determines central and peripheral (side) vision. We ask you to press a button each time a spot of light is seen. It is used to detect and diagnose glaucoma and other visual field defects.
Corneal topographer
The corneal topographer is used to carry out an detailed evaluation of the shape of the cornea to detect eye conditions, as well as Meibomian glands observation and tear film analysis.
Colorimetry machine
A Colorimeter is used in colorimetry assessments to prescribe the exact tint of colour that can alleviate an individual’s symptoms of visual stress. This shade is used to create Precision Tinted Lenses.
Thompson test chart
The Thompson test chart plays an integral part of any eye examination. Our optometrist will ask you to read letters from the chart to assess your vision and determine your prescription.
