Advanced Diagnostic Eye Tests Available at Premiere Eye Referral Center Optical

Early detection is one of the most important factors in preserving your vision. Many eye diseases develop gradually and may not show noticeable symptoms until permanent vision loss has already occurred. That's why advanced diagnostic testing plays a crucial role in identifying eye conditions at their earliest stages.

At Premiere Eye Referral Center & Optical, we offer a comprehensive range of state-of-the-art diagnostic eye tests that help our ophthalmologists accurately diagnose, monitor, and manage various eye diseases. Whether you're experiencing vision problems, undergoing a routine eye examination, or preparing for surgery, our advanced diagnostic equipment provides detailed information to guide the best treatment plan for your eyes.

Below are the diagnostic tests available at our center.

Automated Visual Field (AVF)

The Automated Visual Field (AVF) test evaluates your peripheral (side) vision and detects areas where vision may be reduced or lost.

This examination is commonly used to diagnose and monitor:

  • Glaucoma
  • Optic nerve disorders
  • Neurological conditions affecting vision
  • Retinal diseases

The test is painless and helps your ophthalmologist monitor changes in your visual field over time.

A-Scan (Biometry)

An A-Scan (Biometry) measures the length of your eye and calculates the appropriate power of the intraocular lens (IOL) before cataract surgery.

This test provides precise measurements that help surgeons achieve the best possible visual outcomes after cataract surgery.

B-Scan (Ocular Ultrasound)

A B-Scan Ultrasound uses sound waves to create images of the inside of the eye when direct visualization is difficult.

This diagnostic test is particularly useful when dense cataracts, vitreous hemorrhage, or other conditions prevent the doctor from seeing the retina clearly.

It helps evaluate:

  • Retinal detachment
  • Vitreous hemorrhage
  • Eye tumors
  • Posterior eye abnormalities

Corneal Topography

Corneal Topography creates a detailed map of the surface curvature of your cornea.

This examination is commonly performed for patients who are:

  • Considering LASIK or other laser vision correction procedures
  • Diagnosed with astigmatism
  • Suspected of having keratoconus
  • Being fitted for specialty contact lenses

The test helps assess the shape and curvature of the cornea with remarkable precision.

Corneal Tomography

While Corneal Topography maps the front surface of the cornea, Corneal Tomography provides a three-dimensional analysis of both the front and back surfaces.

It measures:

  • Corneal thickness
  • Corneal elevation
  • Corneal curvature
  • Overall corneal structure

This advanced imaging is an essential part of screening patients for refractive surgery and detecting early corneal diseases.

Fundus Photography

Fundus Photography captures high-resolution digital images of the retina, optic nerve, and blood vessels located at the back of the eye.

These images serve as valuable documentation for diagnosing and monitoring conditions such as:

  • Diabetic retinopathy
  • Glaucoma
  • Macular degeneration
  • Hypertensive retinopathy
  • Retinal disorders

Fluorescein Angiography (FA)

Fluorescein Angiography (FA) is a specialized retinal imaging procedure used to evaluate blood circulation within the retina.

A fluorescent dye is injected into a vein, allowing detailed photographs of the retinal blood vessels to be taken.

This examination helps diagnose and monitor:

  • Diabetic retinopathy
  • Retinal vein occlusion
  • Macular edema
  • Choroidal neovascularization
  • Other retinal vascular diseases

Farnsworth-Munsell 100 Hue Test (FM-100)

The Farnsworth-Munsell 100 Hue Test is an advanced color vision assessment that evaluates a person's ability to distinguish subtle differences between colors.

This test is commonly performed for:

  • Occupational vision screening
  • Color vision deficiency assessment
  • Monitoring certain retinal and optic nerve diseases

Ishihara Color Vision Test

The Ishihara Test is one of the most widely used screening tests for color vision deficiency.

Patients are asked to identify numbers or patterns hidden within specially designed color plates, helping detect red-green color blindness and other color vision abnormalities.

Pachymetry

Pachymetry measures the thickness of your cornea.

This information is essential for:

  • Glaucoma evaluation
  • LASIK eligibility screening
  • Corneal disease assessment
  • Monitoring corneal health

Accurate corneal thickness measurements assist your ophthalmologist in making important treatment decisions.

Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT)

Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) is a non-invasive imaging technology that produces highly detailed cross-sectional images of the retina and optic nerve.

OCT plays a critical role in diagnosing and monitoring:

  • Glaucoma
  • Macular degeneration
  • Diabetic macular edema
  • Macular holes
  • Epiretinal membranes
  • Retinal swelling

Because OCT provides microscopic-level detail, it has become one of the most valuable diagnostic tools in modern ophthalmology.

OCT Angiography (OCTA)

OCT Angiography (OCTA) is an advanced imaging technique that visualizes blood flow within the retina without requiring dye injection.

Combined with OCT Macula imaging, this examination provides detailed information about retinal circulation and helps detect:

  • Diabetic retinopathy
  • Macular degeneration
  • Retinal vascular disorders
  • Choroidal neovascularization
  • Other retinal diseases

OCTA allows ophthalmologists to identify abnormalities earlier and monitor disease progression with remarkable precision.
