Comprehensive Vision & Eye Health Testing

Many eye diseases, such as glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy or retinal tears and detachments, if detected at an early stage, can be treated successfully without total loss of vision. Now with the Optomap retinal examination we can offer this screening service as part of your standard eyesight examination.

Obtaining Optomap retinal images is comfortable, quick and very simple. By looking into an eyepiece, the digital image of the retina is captured in less than a second, with a small flash indicating the image has been taken. Nothing touches your eye during the process. Your Optomap retinal image is then immediately displayed for us to review with you.

Your digital Optomap image will be stored electronically giving us a permanent record of the condition of your retina. This is very important in assisting us to detect and measure changes in your eyes next time you attend for a routine eye examination. The images can even be emailed to a Retinal Specialist for a second opinion.

Everyone can benefit from an Optomap examination, the youngest person imaged so far is only 3 weeks old and the oldest nearly 100 years old. Therefore, we are recommending that everyone has an Optomap examination every time they attend for a routine eye examination.

This is one of the most significant advances in eye care we have ever seen and are proud to be one of only a handful of eye care practices across the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania able to offer this service and the only private practice in Indiana County to offer it.
