During your visits to our Victoria stores, customers will be offered a variety of optometry services. Patients can be sure that there will be trained optical associates to help you with these services which include; visual field analysis, contact lens consultation, optometry consultation, and a diabetic eye consultation. Bookings to each of these services may easily be booked through the Dresden website, and over the phone. You may give any of our stores a call in order to find out about the optometrists at these locations. A visual field analysis is a much more detailed test which checks patients for movement and sensitivity in the different parts of the visual field. During a contact lens consultation, our optometrists may ask you some daily lifestyle questions in order to identify customers' suitability for contact lenses and in order to find the most suitable one for them. These may include questions such as how long you are planning to wear the lenses and how often you will be wearing them. An optometry consultation entails checks which will help you with your vision, this will be a good option for those who are not only having problems with their vision but also experiencing headaches and nausea as these may sometimes be vision related. A diabetic eye consultation is especially important for those patients who have diabetes, and should have a check up regularly. Diabetes can increase the risk of many eye conditions, such as diabetic retinopathy. Customers can be sure that you may also be able to pick up your glasses on visit if the lenses are available making it convenient and quick!
