Keep Your Eyes Healthy with Early Detection
Many eye conditions develop quietly, showing no noticeable symptoms until vision is affected. Regular eye exams are essential for detecting issues such as glaucoma, cataracts, age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, keratoconus, and dry eye early on.
At Summit Eyecare Centre, we combine diagnostic technology with personalized care to identify and manage these conditions before they impact your daily life.
Contact us to book your eye exam today and take the first step toward maintaining healthy, clear vision for every stage of life.
How We Detect Eye Diseases
Our clinic uses diagnostic tools to provide a complete picture of your eye health:
- Optos Daytona Retinal Camera: Capture ultra-wide images of your retina for early detection
- Autofluorescence and OCT: Identify changes in the retina and optic nerve before symptoms appear
- ZEISS OCT and Zeiss Humphrey Automated Visual Field: Evaluate optic nerve and peripheral vision for glaucoma monitoring
- Canon Retinal Camera: High-resolution imaging for comprehensive assessments
- NIDEK Combination Autorefractor, NCT, and Pachymetry: Measures eye pressure, corneal thickness, and vision prescription
This technology allows our team to provide detailed insights and create individualized treatment plans to help maintain your vision.
Glaucoma Management
Glaucoma is a condition that gradually damages the optic nerve and can lead to permanent vision loss if left untreated. It often develops without noticeable symptoms, which is why regular eye exams are essential for early detection.
At Summit Eyecare Centre, we use diagnostic testing, including eye pressure measurements, optic nerve imaging, and visual field assessments, to monitor your eye health closely. Early detection allows for interventions that can slow disease progression and protect your vision. Treatment may include prescription eye drops, lifestyle adjustments, or referral to a specialist for more advanced care.
Cataract Exams & Management
A cataract is the clouding of the eye’s natural lens, which can affect the clarity of your vision and make activities like driving at night or reading difficult. Early detection allows our team to track the progression of the cataract and recommend strategies to maintain comfortable vision for as long as possible.
When surgery is necessary, we co-manage your care with trusted cataract specialists, guiding you through the process to restore clear vision and improve quality of life.
AMD Testing & Management
AMD affects the central part of your vision and is most common in adults over 50. It can make reading, recognizing faces, and performing detailed tasks more difficult. At Summit Eyecare Centre, we use advanced retinal imaging to detect changes in the macula early.
For patients with dry AMD, the MacuMira device provides targeted treatment to help slow disease progression and support central vision. Combined with lifestyle guidance and ongoing monitoring, this approach helps you maintain independence and continue enjoying everyday activities with confidence.
Diabetic Eye Disease
Diabetic retinopathy occurs when high blood sugar levels damage the small blood vessels in the retina, potentially affecting vision over time. Often, there are no early symptoms, which makes regular eye exams essential.
At Summit Eyecare Centre, we use retinal imaging to detect changes early and provide personalized management. Through careful monitoring, timely treatment, and guidance on maintaining eye health, we help protect your vision and support your overall well-being.
Additional Conditions We Monitor
In addition to the major eye diseases, our team monitors a variety of other conditions that can affect your vision and comfort:
- Dry eye: Assessment and treatment to relieve discomfort and protect eye health
- Keratoconus: Corneal mapping and specialty lenses to manage corneal changes
- Other ocular conditions: Comprehensive testing identifies issues before they impact your vision

Age, family history, and certain health conditions increase the risk of eye disease. By having regular eye exams, you can:
- Detect conditions early when treatment is most effective
- Receive personalized management plans tailored to your eyes
