What Is Retinal Imaging?

Retinal imaging is a non-invasive procedure that uses advanced technology to capture detailed images of the retina, the light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye. This technology allows us to see deep into the eye and detect issues that may not be visible during a standard eye exam. By using retinal imaging, we can identify eye diseases early and monitor changes over time.

Advanced Retinal Imaging Technology

At Victoria Village Optometry, we use the latest retinal imaging technology to ensure the most accurate results. Our high-resolution imaging systems provide detailed views of the retina, allowing us to detect even the smallest changes. With this technology, we can closely monitor any existing conditions and ensure that your treatment plan is effective.

How Often Should You Have Retinal Imaging?

For most adults, retinal imaging should be part of your annual comprehensive eye exam, especially if you have a family history of eye disease or are over the age of 40. Patients with diabetes or existing eye conditions may need retinal imaging more frequently. Regular imaging allows us to monitor the health of your retina and detect changes before they impact your vision.

What to Expect During Retinal Imaging

  • Preparation: You may be asked to remove your contact lenses, and depending on the type of imaging, we may dilate your pupils to get a better view of your retina.
  • Imaging: You’ll sit in front of the imaging machine while we capture detailed images of your retina. The process is comfortable and takes just a few minutes.
  • Review: Once the images are taken, your optometrist will review them with you and explain any findings. If any abnormalities are detected, we’ll discuss your treatment options.
