Retinal Photography

Our previous Polaroid Canon camera was replaced in 2004 by a Canon CR DGi 10.0 mega pixel digital capture system. It has the capacity to capture images of resolution far in excess of the standard required by the national diabetic eye screening protocol.

The accompanying software also has manipulation properties that provide enhanced visibility of pathology, and the ability to measure structures for future comparison.

The imaging system is used for diabetic eye screening, glaucoma monitoring, routine eye examination screening, & monitoring of other retinal abnormailties & tumours such as naevi.

Eye Tests & Examinations
