What is Retinal Photography?
Retinal photography is a crucial diagnostic tool that uses high-resolution imaging technology to take pictures of the inside of your eye, focusing on the retina, blood vessels, and optic nerve. These images are fundamental in early detection and management of various eye conditions and diseases.
Why It Matters
By examining the detailed photos of your retina, our experienced optometrists can detect and monitor subtle changes in your eye health over time. This process is invaluable for identifying signs of conditions such as:
