How Our Advanced Technology Ensures a Superior Optometry Visit

At Gun Barrel Family Eyecare & Dry Eye Center, we’re committed to providing exceptional eye care through a combination of experience, personalized service, and cutting-edge technology. From diagnosing complex conditions to optimizing your contact lens fit, our state-of-the-art instruments help us deliver more precise, efficient, and comfortable care for every patient. Here’s how our advanced diagnostic tools elevate your visit.
 

Precision for Contact Lens and Dry Eye Evaluations

Our Firefly slit lamp system with meibography capabilities allows us to closely examine the meibomian glands. This tool is especially beneficial when fitting contact lenses, including specialty and scleral lenses. By understanding your eyelid and tear gland health, we can better recommend contact lens solutions that won’t exacerbate dry eye symptoms, ensuring maximum comfort and wearability.
 

Seamless Eye Exams and Retinal Imaging

Our Marco digital phoropter streamlines the process of determining your exact prescription, offering faster, more accurate vision testing with real-time results. Paired with our Marco fundus camera, we can capture high-quality images of your retina without discomfort or pupil dilation, allowing us to detect signs of retinal disease early - often before symptoms occur.
 

Comfortable Intraocular Pressure Testing

Measuring eye pressure is a crucial step in identifying and managing glaucoma. Our iCare tonometer makes this process easier than ever. It uses a quick, gentle rebound method that’s safe and more comfortable than the traditional puff test, making your experience less stressful while still delivering accurate results.
 

Detecting Subtle Vision Loss

Visual field testing is essential for detecting blind spots and peripheral vision changes that may be linked to conditions such as glaucoma or neurological issues. Our Oculus system provides comprehensive visual field analysis, helping us monitor vision changes over time and adjust treatment plans as needed.
 

Detailed Retinal Imaging Without Dilation

The Kowa non-mydriatic fundus camera offers high-resolution images of the retina without the need for pupil dilation. This not only reduces wait times and post-exam discomfort but also enables us to closely monitor retinal health and detect conditions like diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, or optic nerve damage with clarity and speed.
