What Is The Optomap®?

An optomap® Retinal Exam is:

  • A ultra wide image of your retina displaying around 80% of your retina
  • Using high definition imaging with a scanning laser and software
  • Able to detect many dangerous diseases such as retinal tears, detached retinas, glaucoma, diabetes, diabetes, hypertension/high blood pressure, tumors, macular degeneration.
  • The greatest element of this technology is that it is quick, painless, and accurate!

What Is The Procedure?

Before the optomap®, the optometrist would have to dilate the retina to get a clear image, which leaves the patients vision unclear for 4-6 hours (in children as long as 24 hours). Now with the optomap® the patient sits down and the technician adjusts the patient for the correct positioning. The actual picture takes less then a second!

One of the great things about the optomap® is that images are kept in your file, so every time you take a new image, your eye doctor can quickly see if there are any changes from the last time you took one.
