Retinal Camera
Digital retinal photography is one of the most sophisticated and advanced retinal diagnostic tools available. These photographs are vital in detection of eye disease and documenting the health of the optic nerve, blood vessels and macula.
It is especially important for patients to have retinal photography who have a family history of diabetes, glaucoma, high blood pressure or retinal disease.
