Early Detection with Ultra-Wide Retinal Imaging
Without the Need For Dilation

Early detection is key to protecting your vision, The Optos Retinal Exam offers state of the art technology that allows us to see more of the retina in a single scan—without the need for dilating eye drops. With this ultra-widefield view, we can spot early signs of eye disease, monitor ongoing conditions, and provide more precise care than traditional methods allow.

Unlike standard retinal imaging, which captures only a small portion of the retina, Optos imaging covers up to 80% in one quick image. This broader view helps us identify issues such as retinal tears or detachments, diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, macular degeneration, and even signs of systemic conditions like high blood pressure or diabetes—sometimes before symptoms appear.

The scan itself is quick, comfortable, and non-invasive. You simply look into the device for a moment while it takes a high-resolution image of the back of your eye. There’s no discomfort, no recovery time, and in most cases, no dilation—so you can get right back to your day.

We recommend the Optos Retinal Exam as part of your routine annual eye exam, especially if you have a personal or family history of eye disease, are over 40, or live with chronic conditions like diabetes. It’s also an excellent option for patients who prefer to avoid the temporary light sensitivity and blurred vision caused by dilating drops.

If you’re ready for a clearer, more detailed picture of your eye health, ask about adding the Optos Retinal Exam to your next visit. It’s a powerful tool that helps us protect your vision—now and for the future.

What our guests are saying about the TruVision experience

I usually have a hard time with eye exams. The docs get frustrated and I end up with a prescription that doesn’t work and I’m left unable to see properly. That did not happen here today. The doc was amazing and very knowledgeable in her field. The prescription I got has me seeing 20/15 which is better than normal!

I came to TruVision Eye care for a second opinion and they were patience and helpful. Their sense of humor isn’t as dry as other firms I’ve went to. We figured out how we can prevent my eye sight to go out of whack. I’m excited to see Dr. Kim. She was very helpful, knowledgeable, and was confident in her ability to answer my questions and concerns. A+++ work.
