Digital Retinal Imaging
Your eyes are a window to your health. Now your doctor at Visionsource can take a closer look with this Ultra-Widefield Retinal Imaging. Digital retinal imaging devices captures more than 80% of your retina in one image. Traditional methods typically reveal only 10-45% of your retina at one time. The enhanced view increases the ability to detect even the earliest sign of diseases such as:
- Diabetic Retinopathy (damaged blood vessels inside the retina leading to blindness)
- Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD)
- Glaucoma (increased eye pressure)
- Hypertension (high blood pressure)
