Services Available at Allen & Habour
We are more than just an optical store; we are a complete vision care provider. Here is a glimpse of what we offer:
- Visual Acuity Test: Think of this as your eye’s report card. During this test, we measure how clearly you can see at different distances using special eye charts. It is a simple yet crucial test that tells us if you need vision correction and helps us track changes in your eyesight over time.
- Refraction: Using special equipment, we test different lens combinations to find the perfect match for your eyes. We will ask you which lens helps you see more clearly while making small adjustments until we find the prescription that gives you the sharpest, most comfortable vision possible.
- Retinoscopy: During this gentle examination, we shine a light into your eye and observe how it reflects off your retina. It is completely painless and gives us precise information about your vision needs, which is especially helpful when examining children or patients who may have difficulty communicating their vision preferences.
- Contact Lens Dispensing: Getting contact lenses isn’t just about your prescription; it is about finding the perfect fit for your lifestyle. We will help you choose between daily, monthly, or extended-wear lenses, teach you proper handling and care techniques, and make sure you are completely comfortable with insertion and removal.
- RGP Contact Lens Fitting: Rigid Gas Permeable (RGP) lenses offer crystal-clear vision and excellent eye health benefits. During your fitting, we will take detailed measurements of your eyes, help you try these durable lenses, and guide you on caring for and handling these specialized lenses.
- Rose K Lens Fitting: Rose K lenses can be life-changing for people with keratoconus or irregular corneas. We take detailed corneal measurements and work with you through multiple fitting sessions to ensure the best possible comfort and vision improvement.
- Home Eye Testing: Our home testing service includes all essential eye examinations using portable equipment. Whether you are elderly, have mobility issues, or simply prefer convenience, we make sure you receive thorough eye care in your comfortable home environment.
- Squint Evaluation: Our comprehensive squint assessment helps identify eye alignment problems that can affect both vision and appearance. We check how your eyes work together, measure the degree of misalignment, and assess muscle function. This detailed evaluation helps us create an effective treatment plan.
- Color Vision Test: This important test helps us understand how well you perceive different colors. Using specially designed plates and patterns, we can identify any color vision deficiencies you might have. This information can help us understand if there are any underlying health conditions affecting your color vision.
- Confrontation Test: While you focus on a central point, we will test your ability to see objects coming from different directions. This test helps us detect any blind spots or vision field defects that might need attention.
- Pediatric Refraction: Our pediatric refraction service is designed to be child-friendly while gathering accurate vision information. We use age-appropriate techniques and equipment to determine if your child needs vision correction.

Comprehensive Eye Care Services at Allen & Habour
Allen & Habour Eye Care Hospital offers complete eye care services across a few locations only. Our team of skilled professionals is committed to providing advanced treatments and personalized care for all your eye health needs. We use advanced technology to ensure your eye health. Below is a detailed description of our specialized services, which include:
- Fundus Photography: We use specialized cameras with built-in microscopes to take detailed pictures of the back of your eye. This helps us detect and monitor various eye conditions early, ensuring better treatment outcomes. Think of it as a detailed photograph of your retina that helps us track your eye health over time.
- Anterior Segment Photography: Using high-quality cameras, we capture detailed images of the front part of your eye. This simple yet effective technique helps us examine your cornea, iris, and lens thoroughly. It is particularly useful for monitoring conditions affecting the front of your eye and planning treatments.
- Streak Retinoscopy: This is a precise way to measure your eye’s focusing power. Our eye care professional uses a retinoscope to shine light into your eye and observe its reflection from your retina. We then use special lenses to determine your exact prescription, ensuring you get the clearest possible vision.
- Direct Ophthalmoscopy: This technique gives us a clear, magnified view of the inside of your eye. It is like looking through a powerful magnifying glass that makes your retina appear 15 times larger and helps us spot even tiny changes in your eye health.
- Indirect Ophthalmoscopy: This method gives us a wider view of your retina, making it easier to spot problems in the outer edges of your eye. It is especially useful for detecting conditions that affect the periphery of your retina.
- Slit Lamp Examination: Using a specialized microscope with a bright light, we can examine your eye structure by structure. This detailed examination helps us check everything from your eyelids to the back of your eye, making it easier to diagnose various eye conditions.
- 90 D Examination: This specialized examination technique gives us a detailed view of your retina and optic nerve. It is particularly useful for diagnosing conditions affecting the back of your eye and monitoring eye health in patients with conditions like glaucoma.
- ROP Screening: We offer specialized screening for Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) in premature babies. Early detection is crucial as ROP can lead to serious vision problems if left untreated. Our experienced team provides gentle, thorough examinations to ensure your baby’s eye health.

- Myopia (nearsightedness)
