Skippers Licence Screening

Good vision is crucial for safe navigation on the water. A skipper’s license screening tests visual acuity, depth perception, peripheral vision, and color vision if required. Clear eyesight helps ensure safe decision-making and hazard detection. If needed, a vision certificate can be provided for your license application.

Drivers Licence Screening

Clear vision is essential for safe driving. Many licensing authorities require a vision test for new applications and renewals. This screening checks visual acuity, peripheral vision, depth perception, and, if needed, color vision. Poor eyesight can affect reaction time and road safety, but corrective lenses may help meet the required standards. After the test, a vision certificate can be provided if necessary.

Glaucoma Testing

Glaucoma is a serious eye condition that can lead to vision loss if left untreated. Regular testing is essential for early detection, especially for those at higher risk. The test measures eye pressure, examines the optic nerve, and assesses peripheral vision. Early detection allows for timely treatment to help prevent vision loss.
