Optomap FAQs
Our Optomap ultra-widefield retinal imaging device captures more than 82% of your retina in one image whereas, traditional methods of retinal imaging typically reveal only 10-15% of your retina.
If you choose to receive an Optomap during your visit, your doctor can show you things they typically see during a dilated exam. The benefit of investing in Optomap retinal imaging is that your doctor can compare changes in your retina year over year by saving the Optomap in your digital health record.
At Simon Eye, we are committed to providing you with eye care for life by using state-of-the-art technology and delivering an excellent patient experience every time you visit. We recommend that our patients include an Optomap as part of their annual comprehensive eye exam.
*Optomap is not covered by insurance and you will incur a $39.00 charge at the time of your appointment.
