The Optomap Retinal Exam
The
Optomap® Retinal Exam is unique in
that it gives us a much larger view (200 degrees) of the back of the eye
- your retina - than conventional eye exam equipment. The
images can be taken without dilating your pupils - a very common
procedure which is uncomfortable and inconvenient for many people.
The
Optomap image is displayed immediately
after being taken, allowing the eye care professional to review
it quickly and if necessary, refer you to a retinal specialist.
Using the Internet, the image can be sent anywhere in the world
for a specialist to review. Each
Optomap image is as individual as
fingerprints or DNA and can provide us with a unique view of
your eye health very quickly and comfortably. The Optomap
image is captured in less than one minute and is immediately
available for you and the doctor to re view. The
Optomap Retinal Exam offers many advantages
including: · Provides an ultra-widefield view of
the retina · Comfortable and quick image capture ·Non-invasive ·Helps you understand your eye health ·Provides permanent records for future comparison ·The Optomap technology does not require
pupil dilation, however the decision to dilate or not is a medical
decision to be made by the doctors at The Kurtin Eye Care Center. ·Patient can resume normal activities immediately
