The Optos Retinal Image Scanner creates digital images of the eye called Optomaps. These images are taken in seconds and typically without eye drops or dilation of the pupil that are used in traditional retinal exams.
This scanner helps our optometrists peer into 220 degrees of the retina to diagnose eye diseases such as glaucoma, macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy.
This imaging system is included with most comprehensive exams for everyone over the age of 19 years.
