Optomap retinal imaging is a groundbreaking technology that allows us to capture a detailed, wide-field view of your retina in a single, quick scan.
Optomap is an ultra-wide digital retinal imaging system that captures more than 80% of your retina in a single image. This is a significant improvement over traditional retinal imaging methods, which typically only show 10-15% of your retina at a time. The Optomap scan is fast, painless, and doesn’t require dilating eye drops, making it comfortable and convenient for patients of all ages.
Optomap gives your optometrist a comprehensive picture of your retina, capturing a 200° view.
It makes early detection of eye conditions and general health issues possible, often before you experience any symptoms. This means treatments can begin quickly, maximising your chances of a successful outcome.
It’s also quick and comfortable, only taking a few seconds.
Such a detailed view of your eye helps us explain any issues and gives you a better understanding of your eye health. We can easily compare images year-over-year to track subtle changes in your eye health over time.
Optomap technology is state-of-the-art and can help your optometrist pick up and monitor several common eye health and general health conditions, including:
By identifying these conditions in their earliest stages, we can often begin treatment before they significantly impact your vision or overall health.
While both Optomap and OCT (optical coherence tomography) are advanced imaging technologies, they each serve different purposes in your eye examination.
Optomap provides a wide-field, high-resolution image of the retina’s surface, allowing us to see a broad view of your retinal health. OCT, on the other hand, offers a cross-sectional view of your retina’s layers, enabling us to see beneath the surface and measure the thickness of these layers.
Together, these technologies offer a comprehensive view of your eye health. To learn more about OCT, visit our dedicated OCT page.
