iCare Tonometer
We believe that torture is bad, as part of our mission to create a relaxing environment the "air puffer" was the first thing that was done away with. At Diplopia, we use the advanced iCare tonometer to measure your eye pressure comfortably—without the dreaded air puff! Many patients feel anxious about the traditional "puff test," but with iCare, there’s no need for discomfort or startling sensations. This innovative, no-puff technology is gentle and precise, allowing us to effectively screen for glaucoma while ensuring your exam is as stress-free as possible. Experience the difference of a more relaxing and modern eye exam!
ERG
An LKC retinal evaluation is a cutting-edge diagnostic tool that provides a comprehensive assessment of retinal health by measuring the function of the photoreceptors. This advanced test allows us to detect early signs of retinal diseases like glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, and other retinal disorders, often before they are visible in a standard exam.
Retinal Imaging
Ocular fundus photography is a non-invasive imaging technique used to capture detailed pictures of the back of the eye, known as the fundus. This area includes the retina, optic disc, macula, and blood vessels, which are essential for vision. By using a specialized camera, Dr. Kyser will assess the health of the eye and detect early signs of various eye diseases and systemic conditions.
Dark Adaptation
Dark adaptation testing is a valuable tool for detecting early signs of age-related macular degeneration (AMD), one of the leading causes of vision loss in older adults. This test assesses how quickly the eyes adjust from bright light to darkness, specifically measuring the function of the rods in the retina, which are responsible for night vision. In the early stages of macular degeneration, the ability to adapt to low light conditions is often compromised, even before noticeable symptoms or vision loss occur.
Norwood Apollo
The Norwood Apollo Topographer plays a crucial role in identifying the root causes of dryness, such as meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) or tear film instability. By capturing high-resolution images and detailed data on the corneal surface, the device helps Dr. Kyser detect subtle changes in the tear film and cornea that may contribute to dry eye symptoms.
IPL
At Diplopia, Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) is a powerful tool for treating both ocular health issues and enhancing aesthetics. IPL works by delivering targeted pulses of light that effectively treat ocular rosacea, meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD), and even Demodex mites, which are common culprits in dry eye and inflammation. IPL also addresses pigmentation concerns, such as age spots and sun damage around the eyes, helping restore a more even skin tone.
RF
Our radiofrequency (RF) treatments offer a non-invasive, safe, and effective way to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, without the need for surgery. In addition to its cosmetic benefits, RF is highly effective in treating dry eye, improving the health of the eyelids, and supporting tear production. Patients experience optimal results with minimal discomfort, making it a highly sought-after option for both eye and facial rejuvenation.
LLLT
Low Level Light Treatment (LLLT) is a non-invasive therapy that provides relief for dry eye. LLLT uses specific wavelengths of light to stimulate cellular activity and reduce inflammation in the eyes. This can help to improve the function of the meibomian glands and reduce the symptoms associated with dry eye.
Zest
ZEST, short for Zocular Eyelid System Technology, is a gentle yet advanced in-office procedure designed to improve eyelid health quickly and effectively. Using the ZocuKit pack, which contains everything needed, ZEST safely removes biofilm from the eyelid without causing trauma, making it ideal for patients with conditions like Demodex, MGD, or rosacea.
NuLids
Our eyes are extremely delicate, yet they can be subjected to harsh conditions and other environmental factors that affect their health. One of the problems that can affect our eyes is an accumulation of dirt, debris, and bacteria on the eyelids. This can cause a range of issues, including stopping tear film from reaching the eyes and being properly dispersed over their surface – which is necessary to keep them healthy and comfortable. Fortunately, a new solution called NuLids can help.
TearCare
TearCare provides a cutting-edge solution for dry eye relief. This revolutionary treatment uses wearable eyelid warming devices to deliver precise heat to the meibomian glands, helping to unclog them and restore healthy oil production to the eyes. TearCare addresses the root cause of meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD), one of the most common contributors to dry eye. The procedure is quick, typically taking less than 15 minutes, and is performed in-office by Dr. Kyser, ensuring effective, long-lasting relief.
Prokera
Prokera is an advanced treatment that utilizes a natural amniotic membrane graft, sourced ethically from healthy, scheduled C-sections, to support rapid healing and restoration of the cornea. This unique technology promotes cellular regeneration, reduces inflammation, and protects the ocular surface, making it an ideal option for patients suffering from conditions like dry eye, corneal damage, and inflammation. By integrating Prokera into treatment, we offer patients an opportunity for their eyes to heal more fully and achieve a healthier baseline.
Beyond dry eye relief, Prokera is especially valuable for patients preparing for cataract or other eye surgeries, as it optimizes the corneal surface, which can lead to improved surgical outcomes and faster recovery times. Prokera is designed to be safe, non-invasive, and comfortable, gently helping the eye return to its optimal state without complex procedures or downtime.
