The goal of visual display unit (VDU) eye examinations is to look for and treat pre-existing visual abnormalities of the eyes that may cause pain due to the visual attention required for many VDU tasks like computer screen work, for example. Employees that use display screen technology as a significant part of their daily work are typically classified as VDU users and some opticians, like EyeSmile, have a vision testing agreement for all VDU users.

“Computer vision syndrome is an eye condition commonly affecting VDU users, with symptoms ranging from weary to dry eyes, increased headaches, and blurred vision. We will be able to establish if a person requires VDU glasses or not with our comprehensive VDU eye exams in Twickenham. VDU glasses are specially designed lenses that are coated with an anti-reflection material, which helps to minimize glare from computer screens, reduce eye strain, and increase contrast and detail by roughly 20%,” said Neeru Korpal, co-owner of EyeSmile.

Vineet and Neeru Korpal first launched EyeSmile in 2009, and the practice soon became renowned for offering quality dental and optical services to members of the Twickenham community. They provide a wide range of general dentistry services such as preventative dentistry, general dentistry, cosmetic dentistry, optical services, as well as facial aesthetics. Their committed team always aims for quality in the wide range of dentistry and optical services they provide, and they are committed to enhancing vision and restoring beautiful smiles for every patient who passes through their doors.

When visiting EyeSmile for an eye exam, not only is the quality of your current vision tested but the overall health of your eyes is also examined to detect early eye disorders such as macular degeneration, cataracts, and glaucoma. Many of these diseases can be successfully treated if detected early, which is why it is important to have your eyes examined at least once every two years.

A thorough eye examination at EyeSmile can help detect whether patients have refractive abnormalities (like whether they are far or near-sighted), or whether they have eye muscle tension issues, strabismus, or any other eye-related problems. The team of opticians from EyeSmile is in many cases, the first health professionals to notice chronic conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, high blood pressure, and diabetes in patients.

Patients can expect world-class optometry and dentistry services from highly qualified and experienced specialists when they opt for EyeSmile, and if you want to learn more about the wide range of dental and optical services they provide, you can visit their extensive website or contact them by phone or email.
