In-House Coburn Edger

We are able to provide same-day glasses because we have an in-house laboratory. We invested in a state-of-the-art lens edging system from Coburn Technologies, the industry leader in ophthalmic optics. The new HPE-910 EXXPERT Express Lens Edger is equipped with 7 step bevel types and 5 edging styles, creating a perfect, sturdy fit for frames. This will allow Heights Eye Studio to provide your same-day glasses with the highest quality and greatest accuracy.

Digital Phoropter
Instead of manual phoropters that are ancient, the Heights Eye Studio Experience utilizes a digital phoropter to obtain the most accurate prescription. This phoropter was engineered for high quality and reliability in order to increase speed and efficiency in your refraction. With the abundance of lens options and programs inside this piece of equipment, the choices made by your optometrist will ultimately lead to your clearest prescription.

iCare Tonometer

Instead of the anxiety-ridden air-puff test, we utilize the new iCare Tonometer to get a reading of your intraocular pressures. The iCare Tonometer is an advanced piece of equipment that utilizes patented rebound technology where a light small probe momentarily makes contact with the cornea. This makes intraocular pressure readings quick and painless!

OptikamPad

Instead of opticians obtaining manual measurements, Heights Eye Studio utilizes the OptikamPad to digitally enhance frame and lens measurements. This will allow us to dispense the best visual experience. The customized measurements we are now able to obtain include

● Monocular Pupillary Distance (PD)

● Multifocal Seg Height

● Pantoscopic Tilt (panto)

● Vertex Distance

● Frame Wrap

● Near Pupillary Distance

● A, B, ED and DBL values

Optomap Daytona

Instead of the dreaded dilation drops that sting and have side effects of blurry vision and light sensitivity, the Heights Eye Studio Experience includes an overall check of the health of your eyes with the new Optomap Daytona. This new piece of state-of-the-art equipment allows us to obtain a 200-degree digital picture of the retina (back of the eye) in order to aid in diagnosing eye diseases. Many asymptomatic eye problems can be found with a quick Optomap photo including retinal holes, retinal tears, retinal detachments, macular degeneration, glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, and hypertensive (high blood pressure) retinopathy. The Optomap pictures will also be a part of your permanent record on your file, allowing us to compare images a year to year to look for changes.

Prokera

Prokera contains the only FDA-cleared cryopreserved amniotic membrane for anti-inflammatory and anti-scarring. Prokera corneal bandages are designed for treating damaged cornea(s) by creating an environment for regenerative healing. Indications for Prokera include corneal ulcers, keratitis, corneal abrasions, corneal erosions, dry eyes and more.
