Optomap

What is the Optomap? Why do I need an Optomap?

The Optomap is the latest technology for evaluating internal eye disease. It provides the doctor with the most detailed view of the inside of the eye. It also allows for earlier detection of any retinal disease and for eye signs of diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure and even cancer. It also records a permanent digital record of your internal eye health so the doctor can compare even any small changes to eye health.

The Optomap procedure takes minutes to perform, It is fast, painless and comfortable for patients. We have performed the Optomap on patients of all ages. In most cases, performing the Optomap will eliminate the need for uncomfortable pupil dilation.

Our doctors are committed to incorporating the newest technologies available-not all optometry practices in Calgary have the Optomap technology. We have them in all three of our locations: Downtown Calgary, North Calgary (Hunterhorn Plaza), and South Calgary (Avenida Place).

The Optomap represents the highest standard of eye health testing and feel all our patients deserve the best eye care available. That is why this testing has become our standard of care in every eye exam.
