That’s why they make a point to equip their office with the latest in eyecare technology, taking advantage of new developments for a state-of-the-art eye exam. Optomap, a retinal examination technology, is amongst these groundbreaking technologies, assisting doctors in every one of their Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky locations to give a more comprehensive eye exam. Read on to learn more about this extraordinary eyecare advancement, and why your eye doctor might recommend making it a part of your next eye exam.

Optomap provides an ultra-wide map view of your retina, and it’s a thorough perspective unavailable with any other current technology. Its retinal camera takes a digital image of the back of your eye, allowing for a far more comprehensive eye exam than only looking at the front of the eye. Images are pulled up on a computer to show the patient exactly what is going on in their eyes, so your eye doctor can easily explain anything he notices in a clear, educational way.

By allowing for a deeper, fuller look into the eye, Optomap allows your eye doctor to spot symptoms of a range of optical diseases, including glaucoma and macular degeneration. The images Optomap produces also frequently provide insights into your general health. By spotting variations on your retina, your eye doctor may be able to detect systemic diseases, such as diabetes, high blood pressure, and some cancers. The detailed view allows symptoms of both ocular and systemic issues to be spotted early, often preventing them from progressing into more serious problems.
