The diagnosis of ametropia is the most common reason for visiting the ophthalmologist<\/a><\/strong>. Whether nearsightedness, farsightedness, or presbyopia, for work, school, and computer work<\/a>, or for leisure and sports: We will work with you to find the ideal solution for your needs.<\/p>\n In addition to individual “classic” refraction<\/strong> using trial frames and phoropters, we use specialized devices adapted for children and adults (e.g., Plus-Optix) for automated diopter determination for distance, reading, and progressive lenses, as well as office and sports glasses<\/strong>.<\/p>\n The gold standard for the exact and objective determination of ametropia, especially in children<\/a>, remains retinoscopy with dilated pupils and under cycloplegia (“eye drops”). This allows for the detection of hidden refractive errors that, if left untreated, could lead to permanent vision impairment that cannot be corrected later.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>Frequently Asked Questions about Ametropia and Prescription Eyeglasses<\/h3><\/div><\/div><\/div>
