Digital Retinal Photo Exam
In our continued efforts to bring the most advanced technology available to our patients, the Eyes On High team is proud to announce the inclusion of the Canon DR-2 digital camera as an integral part of your eye exam.
Many eye problems can develop without warning and progress with no symptoms. Early on, you might not notice any change in your vision. However, diseases such as macular degeneration, glaucoma, retinal tears or detachments, as well as other health problems such as diabetes and high blood pressure, can be detected with a thorough exam of the retina. The retina is the part of your eye that catches the image of what you are looking at, similar to the film in a camera.
A Canon Digital Retina Photo provides:
- A photo to confirm a healthy eye or detect the presence of disease.
- The opportunity for you to view and discuss the digital images of your eye with your doctor at the time of your exam.
- A permanent record for your medical file, enabling your optometrist to make important comparisons if potential problems show themselves at a future examination.
Haag-Streit Diagnostics Octopus 600 Perimetry
Eyes On High is excited to offer the Octopus 600 Perimetry to our patients, a piece of technology that our optometrists felt would be an integral part of maintaining our patient’s ocular health. The Haag-Streit Octopus 600 utilizes Pulsar stimulis to allow us to diagnosis patients who are at risk for glaucoma earlier than any other method on the market. It also allows us to manage those patients that are diagnosed with glaucoma to prevent the progressive nature of the disease that can often lead to some sort of vision loss.
The best part of the Octopus 600 Perimetry is the quick yet precise manner in which it screens for glaucoma, which will allow us to use it on every patient for their comprehensive exam as the testing only takes about a minute per eye. No other glaucoma screener on the market can be so precise yet efficient.
