Retinal Imaging
Advanced Eye Health Screening for Early Detection
What is Retinal Imaging
Retinal imaging is a non-invasive, painless procedure that creates a digital image of the inner structures of your eye. Unlike traditional methods that rely on a manual examination, retinal imaging gives a clear, magnified view of areas that are difficult to see otherwise. This makes it easier to detect early signs of eye diseases such as glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, and even signs of hypertension or high cholesterol that may show up in the blood vessels of the eye. With clearer, permanent records of your retinal health, we can monitor changes over time and make more accurate diagnoses.
Early Detection Means Better Outcomes
Many serious eye conditions develop gradually and often without noticeable symptoms. Retinal imaging plays a crucial role in identifying these changes before they impact your vision. Early detection is key to managing eye diseases effectively and preventing permanent vision loss. In addition to supporting the diagnosis of eye-related conditions, retinal imaging can also reveal important signs of systemic health issues, offering a wider view of your overall health. This technology enables our optometrists to create personalised treatment plans and track the effectiveness of ongoing care, providing you with the highest level of protection for your eyesight.
Our Retinal Imaging Process
At the Eyecare Spot we perform retinal imaging as part of our regular eye testing. It is quick, safe, and comfortable. You will be asked to look into a specialised camera that captures detailed images of the back of your eye in just seconds. In most cases, no pupil dilation is required, which means no long waiting times or sensitivity to light afterward. Our optometrists will carefully review the images with you, explaining any findings and answering any questions you may have. This ensures you leave your appointment with a clear understanding of your eye health.
