Take Charge of Your Eye Health—Right from Home!
Daniel Laroche MD
We're excited to share that Advanced Eyecare of New York now offers online visual field testing, empowering you to monitor crucial aspects of your eye health from the comfort of your own home. Visual field exams are an important step in detecting and tracking glaucoma and other optic nerve diseases—and now, this essential test is available anytime, on your schedule.
Before scheduling your at-home testing, we highly encourage everyone—especially those with glaucoma risk factors—to visit the Laroche Glaucoma Risk Calculator. This free online screening tool lets you assess your risk for glaucoma in minutes, helping you make informed eye care decisions. To complete your risk calculator assessment, you’ll need your age, intraocular pressure (IOP), and central corneal thickness (CCT). These values are necessary for the calculator to provide a personalized risk estimate.
This screening service is especially valuable for individuals who have elevated intraocular pressure, thin central corneal thickness, are over the age of 40, have a family history of glaucoma, or belong to higher-risk populations such as African, Hispanic/Latino, or Asian descent. People with medical conditions such as diabetes or hypertension, those with a history of eye trauma or steroid use, and anyone who has not had a recent comprehensive eye exam can also benefit. Additionally, individuals already diagnosed with early or suspected glaucoma, or those living in areas with limited access to eye care, may find this home-based approach especially convenient. However, if you are experiencing sudden vision changes, eye pain, or have advanced glaucoma or complex eye disease, it’s important to seek immediate in-person evaluation.
Our remote testing service offers true convenience—no commute and no waiting rooms—along with expert care. Each test is reviewed by our team, with a comprehensive virtual consultation from glaucoma specialist Dr. Daniel Laroche, MD. A one-time fee of $100 covers the at-home test, expert interpretation, and a personal video consult to review your results.
Ready to take the next step? Complete your risk screening with the Laroche Glaucoma Risk Calculator using your age, intraocular pressure, and corneal thickness. Then, reach out to us at info@advancedeyecareny.com to schedule your remote visual field test and take charge of your eye health!
Disclaimer:
While our online visual field testing and risk calculator are valuable for glaucoma risk assessment and monitoring, they do not replace a comprehensive eye examination. A full glaucoma evaluation includes direct optic nerve examination, gonioscopy (to assess the drainage angle), structural imaging, and retinal photography, all performed in-office by an eye care professional. Regular comprehensive eye exams remain essential for accurate diagnosis and management.
Let's make eye health accessible, convenient, and proactive—together.
