We recommend the Optomap Retinal Exam for every patient, every year. It is unique in that it gives our doctors 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 your optometrist 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 eye care professionals with a unique view of your health very quickly and comfortably. The Optomap image is captured in less than one second and is immediately available for you and your doctor to review.
The fee for this service is $39 and is usually not covered by routine vision plans.
