optomap retinal image
In our continued efforts to bring the most advanced technology available to our patients, Marina Optometric Center has integrated the Optomap Retinal Exam as part of your comprehensive eye exam. The procedure is fast, easy, and comfortable. With this new technology, the dilation process that the doctor has had to use in the past to enlarge your pupil and evaluate the health of your retina, can in most cases be eliminated.
This allows you to spend less time in the office and have the ability to see clearly when you leave instead of being sensitive to light and blurred vision for reading due to the dilation drops. The optomap retinal scan gives the doctors a more detailed view to help detect diseases such as macular degeneration, glaucoma, retinal tears and detachments, as well as health problems such as diabetes and high blood pressure.
The optomap also gives you an opportunity to view and discuss with the doctor the image of your eye and is part of your permanent medical record that will be referred back to yearly to help detect any changes
