OPTOMAP RETINAL EXAM

The Optomap® Retinal Exam Is Fast, Easy, And Comfortable For All Ages.

Annual eye exams are vital to maintaining your vision and overall health.  Our doctors feel so strongly about monitoring overall health through the eyes that all Garden State Eye Group comprehensive eye exams include the optomap® Retinal Exam. The optomap® Retinal Exam produces an image that is as unique as your fingerprint and provides your eye doctor with a wide view to look at the health of your retina. The retina is the part of your eye that captures the image of what you are looking at, similar to film in a camera.

​

Many eye problems can develop without you knowing. You may not even notice any change in your sight. But, diseases such as macular degeneration, glaucoma, retinal tears or detachments, and other health problems such as diabetes and high blood pressure can be seen with a thorough exam of the retina.

​

An Optomap® Retinal Exam Provides:

​

  • A scan to show a healthy eye or detect disease.

  • A view of the retina, giving your doctor a more detailed view than he/she can get by other means.

  • The opportunity for you to view and discuss the optomap® image of your eye with your doctor at the time of your exam.

  • A permanent record for your file, which allows Garden State Eye Group to view your images each year to look for changes.
