Enhancing Eye Care With Optos California: The Power of Ultra-Widefield Retinal Imaging

At Lakhani Vision Care, we are committed to providing the highest standard of eye care by utilizing the most advanced technology available. One of the most groundbreaking tools in modern optometry is the Optos California ultra-widefield retinal imaging system, a device that allows us to view more of the retina than ever before. This powerful technology enhances early detection, accurate diagnosis, and effective management of many eye and systemic conditions.

What Is Ultra-Widefield Retinal Imaging?

Traditional retinal imaging captures only a small portion of the retina, often requiring dilation and multiple images to piece together a complete view. Optos California changes this by producing an ultra-widefield (UWF) image that covers up to 200 degrees of the retina in a single capture. This means we can see nearly 80% of the retina at once, compared to only 15% with standard methods.
 

The Importance of Retinal Imaging Your Eye Health

The retina is the light-sensitive layer at the back of the eye, and its health is essential for clear vision. Many eye diseases begin at the outer edges of the retina, where traditional imaging often misses early signs. With ultra-widefield technology, we can detect:
 

• Diabetic retinopathy

• Age-related macular degeneration (AMD)

• Glaucoma

• Retinal tears and detachments

• Hypertensive retinopathy

• Other systemic conditions that can manifest in the eyes

By identifying these conditions in their earliest stages, we can begin treatment before vision loss occurs.

Benefits of Optos California Imaging

• Comprehensive view: A single image provides a much broader look at retinal health.

• Non-invasive and comfortable: No need for eye dilation in most cases, saving you time and discomfort.

• Quick and efficient: Images are captured in seconds, making your exam faster and more convenient.

• Enhanced monitoring: Images can be stored for comparison over time, helping track changes in your eye health.
