Focus on Eye Health - Optomap |
Calgary Optometry Centre answers common eye care questions:
What is the Optomap? Why do I need an Optomap?
The Optomap is the latest technology for evaluating internal eye disease. It provides the doctor with the most detailed view of the inside of the eye and allows for earlier detection of any retinal disease and for eye signs of diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure and even cancer. It also records a permanent record of your internal eye health so the doctor can compare even any small changes to eye health.
The Optomap procedure takes minutes to perform; it is fast, painless and comfortable for patients. We have performed the Optomap on patients of all ages. In most cases, performing the Optomap will eliminate the need for uncomfortable pupil dilation.
Our doctors are committed to incorporating the newest technologies available-currently there are only two optometry practices in Calgary with the Optomap technology. The Optomap represents the highest standard of eye health testing and feel all our patients deserve the best eye care available. That is why this testing has become our standard of care in every eye exam.
