Triangle Family Eye Care, a local Morrisville optometric practice known for its highly advanced level of patient care, has announced recently the introduction of a revolutionary new treatment for blepharitis, an inflammatory disease of the eyelids caused by an overgrowth of bacteria that normally live harmlessly along the lid and the base of the eyelashes.

Triangle Family Eye Care, a Morrisville, NC optometric practice with a local reputation for excellent patient care and a forward thinking, High-Tech approach to eye care, has recently announced the addition of the revolutionary new TelScreen EyeRes Anterior Segment Camera.

Dr. Hiten Prajapati of Triangle Family Eye Care in Morrisville, North Carolina proudly announced this week the arrival of the latest cutting-edge technological addition to his practice, the Humphrey Matrix 800 Visual Field Analyzer by Zeiss. The Humphrey Matrix 800 is Zeiss' latest innovation in peripheral vision testing as a means of early detection of serious eye conditions such as glaucoma. In giving a quick explanation of how this remarkable device helps his patients, Dr. Prajapati explains, "The Humphrey Matrix 800 by Zeiss is utilized basically to map and check the patient's peripheral or side vision. Since glaucoma is a disease of the optic nerve that affects peripheral vision the VFA would pick up any loss of sensitivity in one's side vision if glaucoma is present. It also would check for progression of glaucoma."

Dr. Hitan Prajapati and Triangle Family Eye Care introduce the addition of the exciting new Zeiss Visucam Pro to the practice's eye exams. The Zeiss Visucam Pro is a revolutionary device in the field of retinal imaging technology that allows your eye doctor to take high resolution photographs of the retina, including the optic nerve, retinal blood vessels, vitreous cavity, macula and peripheral retina, in order to help diagnose eye and vision diseases associated with the retina and the human body overall. It can help detect a number of common and sometimes dangerous eye conditions such as diabetic retinopathy, hypertensive retinopathy, glaucoma, macular degeneration and retinal tumors.

There are few things more recognizable by everyone than the standard optometrist’s eye chart. Officially known as the Snellen Eye Chart, named after its Dutch ophthalmologist and inventor, Hermann Snellen, who introduced the chart back on 1862, it has been the standard for measuring vision acuity for well over 100 years. Today, like so many other things we are familiar with, the Snellen Chart has gone digital.
