Not to nerd out on you, but this is the greatest advancement in eye care in the last decade and Bedford Family Eye Care is proud to provide this technology to our patients as part of our ongoing commitment to excellence. Introducing our new Optovue iFusion SD-OCT!
It allows us to not only take a picture of the back of your eye, but to take that picture and turn it sideways and view all the layers of the retina under the surface, similar to an ultrasound (but using light). Imagine looking down at a stack of post-it notes lying flat your desk. Now imagine you pick it up and turn it sideways so you see all the layers of paper. That's what we can now do with your retina lining the back of your eye, and cornea.
Patients with unexplained subtle or even severe vision loss, macular degeneration, glaucoma, diabetes, and more will benefit from this technology, as will our patients suffering from corneal disorders like keratoconus, pellucid's marginal degeneration, and post-surgical irregular corneas.
Even in the absence of clinical signs, by using this technology we can early detect and accurately diagnose vision problems, leading to better patient outcomes. Now through the end of 2015, during your comprehensive eye examination you can elect to have the iWellness OCT module performed on your eyes, at NO ADDITIONAL COST. Just mention this article.
