Optomap
As part of the cutting-edge technology offered at Kilgore-Gilmer Eye Care Center, our optometrists recommend Optomap ultra- wide digital retinal imaging as part of your comprehensive eye exam.
Combined with your eye doctor’s expertise, Optomap brings your eye exam to life to help you and your doctor make informed decisions about your eye health and overall well-being.

Examining the retina is challenging. Your eye doctor looks through your pupil to examine a layer of tissue that covers the back and inside walls of your eye. Traditional viewing methods can be effective, but difficult to perform. They are also carried out manually without any digital record.

The Optomap ultra-wide digital retinal imaging system captures more than 80% of your retina in one panoramic image. Traditional methods typically reveal only 10-12% of your retina at one time. The unique Optomap ultra-wide view enhances your eye doctor’s ability to detect even the earliest sign of disease that presents on your retina. Seeing most of the retina at once allows your eye doctor more time to review your images and educate you about your eye health. Numerous clinical studies have demonstrated the power of optomap as a diagnostic tool.
