As a follow up to yesterday’s post, it turns out that undilated Optomap wide field retinal imaging is just as effective in diagnosing and monitoring diabetic retinopathy as dilating the pupils and using conventional imaging – according to a new study by the American Journal of Ophthalmology (See Undilated Optomap = Dilated Imaging). 
So if you are diabetic or know someone who is, please encourage them to make an appointment with their eye doctor – Eyeclectic has the Optomap technology, and we love it because of not only its diagnostic and monitoring capabilities for diabetics, but for all kinds of retinal disease.
