OptoMap imaging allows our doctors to evaluate the health of the back of your eyes without the use of disruptive dilating drops. Instead of being blurry and light sensitive for 3-4 hours as a side effect of dilation, our doctors can evaluate the retina within seconds by taking an Optomap image. In most cases Optomap is available, however other factors may cause the doctor to recommend a traditional dilated eye exam. The OptoMap allows for a 200 degree view of your retina, compared to just 45 degrees with other cameras. This is typically not covered by insurance, and there is a $39 fee for this service.
