OPTOMETRY SERVICES IN ROODEPOORT

PAUL MOLDOVANOS OPTOMETRIST

At Paul Moldovanos Optometrist we understand that each patient has unique needs. We therefore offer many custom solutions for the whole family, from spectacle lenses for your unique working distance, to custom made contact lenses for either lifestyle needs, to slow down the progression of your child’s myopia, or to drastically improve visions in cases like Keratoconus, post corneal grafts etc.

SPECTACLE LENSES:

SINGLE VISION LENSES

SPECTACLE LENSES:

Single vision lenses are the most prescribed lenses for people between the ages of 0 to 40. These lenses can be coated with a Transitions™ tint or left clear. At our practice, they always come with a hard coat for scratch resistance. Another add-on is an Anti-Reflex Coat (ARC).

SPECTACLE LENSES

Varifocals are generally prescribed to people over 40 who cannot focus at near anymore. As opposed to single vision lenses, they have three zones of focus-far (driving and TV), middle (PC and workbench) and near (reading).

OFFICE LENSES

Varifocals are generally prescribed to people over 40 who cannot focus at near anymore. As opposed to single vision lenses, they have three zones of focus-far (driving and TV), middle (PC and workbench) and near (reading).

OFFICE LENSES

Think of these lenses as a hybrid between single vision readers and varifocals. They offer a clear vision from near distance through to the PC screen distance and up to the interview distance (around 2 metres). They cannot be used for driving, but they have an advantage over varifocals in that the side distortions are negligible and they are also ideal for larger screens.

COATINGS

OFFICE LENSES

Today’s lenses don’t only come with hard coatings for scratch protection, but also anti-reflex coatings(ARC) for bothersome reflections off PC screens and headlights.

CONTACT LENSES​

SOFT CONTACT LENSES

SOFTS ARE THE MOST POPULAR TYPE OF CONTACT LENSES AND OFFER AN ALTERNATIVE TO SPECTACLES.
They are either used full-time or part-time for sports and lifestyle needs. They correct myopia (nearsightedness), far-sightedness and are also available as varifocals. The replacement frequency is either monthly or daily; we will help you choose the right one.

RIGID CONTACT LENSES

RIGID CONTACT LENSES

Also known as RGP, these are generally, but not always, indicated in cases where soft lenses do not work. If the cornea (the front surface of your eye) is unevenly shaped, hard lenses act as a mould for a tear layer that cancels out the surface imperfections and restores vision. They can be uncomfortable, especially with an associated dry eye, and can dislodge too, and that’s where SCLERAL LENSES have the advantage.

SCLERAL LENSES IN ROODEPOORT
These lenses have been both the most exciting, challenging and rewarding of my career.

They have also been the most positively received lenses due to their stability and comfort, as well as being the only contact lenses that mask the symptoms of dry eye disease.
As with hard lenses, Sclerals are indicated in cases where the corneal surface is irregular. Some examples are Keratoconus, post-Corneal Grafts, unmanageable dry eye, Sjogren’s Syndrome, post-LASIK and post-RK complications, Steven-Johnson Syndrome, Pellucid Marginal Degeneration, Corneal injury, high Myopia and Astigmatism. Sclerals are much larger (17 to 20 mm), than hard lenses, which vary from 8 to 10 mm. They do not float on the tear layer, but actually rest on the white part of the eye (the sclera), hence their name.
If you are not succeeding with your current contact lenses, either due to poor vision, poor comfort, dry eye, or a combination of the above, give our Scleral lenses a chance.

With hundreds of successful fits since their introduction in 2014, we would love to provide the opportunity to give you clear, comfortable vision.
