An Optomap detected this serious eye condition

Our new Optus Optomap system is already helping us take better care of our patients’ vision. This includes recently detecting the detached retina as shown above. The image on the left shows a healthy retina, as opposed to our patient’s retina on the right.

What is an Optomap

An Optomap is an ultra-widefield retinal image that captures more than 80% of your retina in one panoramic image. Traditional imaging methods typically only show 15% of your retina at one time.

Early signs of eye disease can show on your retina long before you notice any changes to your vision or feel pain.

Diagnostic best practice

Getting an Optomap image is fast, painless and comfortable, and is now an integral part of our patient care protocols. It’s part of our long term commitment to having the best diagnostic equipment to benefit our patients.
