What To Consider When Selecting Optometry Equipment

Schedule a call
Understanding Practice Workflow and Patient Volumes

The number of patients you see every day and the efficiency with which you aim to work will have a direct effect on the instruments you need. Modern optometrists require reliable optometry equipment that supports accurate assessment, consistent results and smooth day-to-day working.

Choosing the Right Features for Your Practice

We know that not every practice offers the exact same services, so we help match you to equipment that delivers on your services and nuances. Our experts have curated a thorough selection of world-leading optometry instruments that support refraction, including trial frames and lens sets, intraocular pressure measurement, visual field testing, dry eye assessment, slit lamp examination and more.

Integration With Existing Systems and Records

Upgrading equipment doesn’t mean starting again with all your current devices and losing the data you’ve already built up. Each product has been carefully chosen from tried, trusted and renowned manufacturers to ensure reliability, ease of use, long-term performance and effortless integration.

Image Quality, Accuracy and Data Consistency

Optometry products are always developing and improving, so consideration needs to be given to where you can upgrade key data and quality metrics. Higher-quality imaging and more consistent data can help optometry practices expand clinical capabilities and support enhanced services.

Planning for Space and Room Layout

Ergonomics and layout matter, and the optometry equipment you select will need to be well sited and easy to access for efficient working. Portable slit lamps can provide additional flexibility where space is limited or examinations need to be carried out across different rooms or locations. We offer an end-to-end service, working closely with opticians, optometrists and practices to understand space, workflow and clinical objectives, ensuring the right combination of instruments is installed.

Long-Term Ownership, Servicing and Support

Do you also want the peace of mind of partnering with an equipment provider that can also advise, service and support your equipment and practice needs? We’re proud to provide expert guidance, servicing and ongoing support, enabling optometry practices to invest with confidence and adapt their equipment as services develop over time.

Invest in Better Optometry Instruments Without the Upfront Burden

We know that investing in optometry equipment is a considered decision, particularly as your practice grows and expands. That’s why we’re happy to offer finance options that could help you spread the cost of new equipment, allowing you to access the optometry products you need without the upfront cost.

 

Our team can talk you through your potential options as part of a consultation, helping you find a plan that works for your practice and long-term plans.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is optometry?

Optometry covers the primary eye care services around assessing vision, detecting eye conditions and managing visual health. Optometrists examine eyes, prescribe corrective lenses and identify signs of ocular disease, referring patients for specialist care with ophthalmologists where necessary.

The ability for patients to measure their own IOP has the potential to transform glaucoma care. By using home monitoring, we can obtain far more IOP measurements to more accurately identify peak IOP and gain greater appreciation of IOP fluctuations.

Most patients find iCare HOME easy to use and as IOP measurements can be uploaded to the cloud, the clinician can view results remotely. In my practice, the introduction of iCare HOME has allowed us to move away from office-hour IOP phasing and has provided improved insight into IOP as a risk factor for glaucoma progression.
