Digital Retinal Photography

Digital Retinal Photography (DRP) is a cutting edge technology, which enables eye doctors to discern even the most subtle changes in your retina. This technology helps optometrists and ophthalmologists with the early detection of eye disease, in monitoring the progression of a disease and when or if to consider a referral to a sub-specialist.

Our office embraces this technology and baseline photography has now become a routine component of our regular eye examinations. It allows the doctors to more objectively monitor retinal, macular and optic nerve changes over time. Also, should you ever relocate from the KW area, we can provide you with a copy of your DRP to pass on to your new eye care practitioner.

A few of the most common conditions, which DRP is particularly helpful include:

Age Related Macular Degeneration (ARMD)
Diabetes
Glaucoma
Retinal Anomalies

Vision loss is, for many of us, a most fearful concern. Our doctors pride themselves in routinely dilating their patients, routinely checking for glaucoma and embracing technology to provide the best Optometric care.
