Krannawitter Eye Care, P.A., has recently upgraded our technology in order to continue to bring you the very best in eye care. In 2009 we acquired a new retinal imaging device called OPTOS®. This advanced imaging scan allows us to more thoroughly evaluate the back of your eye (the retina) at the time of your examination. A thorough screening of the retina is critical to verify that your eye is healthy. This can lead to early detection of common diseases, such as glaucoma, diabetes, macular degeneration, and even cancer. The exam is quick, painless, and does not require dilation drops.

This non-invasive procedure allows your doctor to see a much broader and more detailed view of the retina than is possible with conventional methods. When reviewed with your doctor, the scan becomes a permanent part of your medical file, enabling your doctor to make important comparisons should potential vision threatening conditions show themselves at a future examination. We strongly believe that the Optomap retinal imaging is an essential part of your comprehensive eye exam and we prescribe it for all patients once per year.
