Digital Retinal Imaging for Your Eye Health
Retinal imaging allows us to take detailed images of the back of your eye during your eye exam. At State Street Optics, this technology helps us better understand your eye health, detect early changes, and keep track of your vision.
What is retinal Imaging?
Retinal imaging allows us to capture detailed pictures of the back of your eye, including areas that aren’t visible during a standard eye exam. These images give our Alma eye doctors a clearer view of structures like the retina and optic nerve, helping us better understand our overall eye health in a simple, visual way.
We offer a range of services designed to support your eye health. Explore how we can help your family.
Located in downtown Alma, our office is easy to find and designed to make your visit comfortable.
Our experienced optometrists take the time to understand your needs and provide care that feels personal.
Helping Detect Changes Early
Many eye conditions develop gradually and may not cause noticeable symptoms right away. Retinal imaging helps us identify subtle changes early, often before they affect your vision. It also allows us to monitor your eye health over time, so we can respond to changes as they happen and guide your care with confidence.
What to expect at State Street Optics
The imaging process is quick and non-invasive. You’ll simply look into the camera while the image is taken—there’s no contact with your eye and no discomfort.
In many cases, retinal imaging can also reduce the need for dilation, making your visit more convenient while still providing a detailed view of your eye health.
Part of Your Eye Exam
Retinal imaging is often included in your routine eye exam, depending on your needs. It gives us valuable information that supports accurate diagnoses, helps us explain your eye health more clearly, and allows you to see what we see. It’s one more way we make your care more thorough and easier to understand.
