The three leading causes of blindness in the US are Diabetic Retinopathy, Macular Degeneration, and Glaucoma: all three have NO symptoms initially.
This reason is why eye exams, including a thorough retinal evaluation, are important to protect vision. In an effort to provide a more complete and thorough ocular health examination, Precision Family Eye Care has incorporated the iWellness retinal scan as an integral part.
Although the retina is only 3 human hairs thick, this painless three second scan of the eye shows the retina in incredibly high, MRI quality, detail. The iWellness technology can often detect subtle disease changes earlier than microscopes and can even identify the very first changes from Glaucoma twice as early as traditional testing methods.
Because of the benefits of early detection, we have incorporated the iWellness retinal imaging as a NO CHARGE addition to every Complete Ocular Health Exam.
