optomap® color rgb imaging enhances ultra-widefield retinal diagnostics by delivering natural-color visualization with improved detail of superficial structures, thanks to its added blue laser. Professor Paulo Stanga’s research highlights its superiority in detecting epiretinal membranes, vitreous opacities, and early retinal changes. However, he emphasizes that rgb and rg imaging together provide the most comprehensive retinal assessment; rgb excels in surface detail, while rg remains crucial for deeper layers. This synergy allows for precise disease detection and monitoring. Read more to explore these groundbreaking insights.

Regular comprehensive eye exams are crucial for detecting and managing diabetic eye issues. Diabetic retinopathy, for example, can often be treated more effectively if caught early. If you have diabetes, it's essential to work closely with your healthcare team to control your blood sugar levels, manage your overall health, and have regular eye exams to catch any potential eye problems early.

At Optos, our technology facilitates the early detection, management and effective treatment of disorders and diseases evidenced in the retina such as diabetic retinopathy. More than 2,500 published and ongoing clinical trials as well as thousands of case studies and testimonials show the long-term value of optomap imaging in diagnosis, treatment planning, and patient engagement in diabetic screening and diabetic eye exams.

Optos urges all eye care practitioners to advocate for children’s eye care services. Remind patients to maintain comprehensive, pediatric eye exams for early detection of issues and increased odds of correcting problems and preserving vision for years to come. If you would like to introduce optomap technology into your practice, contact us to schedule a demonstration to see the bigger picture.  

 A comprehensive optical examination that uses ultra-widefield (UWF™) imaging with optomap, is a critical step to safeguard eye health. optomap imaging helps enable practitioners to detect ocular and systemic ailments that are linked to age. An optomap is a high-resolution, single-shot of 82% of the retina, which allows practitioners to detect problems that could lie in the periphery. In addition to common eye illnesses, high cholesterol and blood pressure, diabetes, vitamin deficiencies and a variety of diseases have also been discovered through eye exams.

Advancements in imaging technology are renovating the standard of care within pediatric optometry practices. The use of innovative ultra-widefield (UWF™) retinal imaging devices from Optos with optomap® technology work to discover and diagnose undetected pathologies hiding in the periphery. Dr. Sunil Parekh, an optometrist in British Columbia, Canada, shared how his Optos® Monaco impacts his practice and patient outcomes.

optomap is the only technology that captures 200-degree UWF in a single shot. These images are critical, especially in pediatric patients who may have no symptoms of eye issues or vision problems.

It's important to understand the importance of routine eye exams, and the utilization of the highest-level technology in pediatric screening.  Optos ultra-widefield (UWF™) imaging technology is making great strides in diagnosing and treating eye problems in children and infants. The cutting-edge modalities and ease of operation with an optomap exam may show signs of ocular or systemic disease, often before children and infants become symptomatic.

Optos technology delivers nine imaging modalities across all devices, a larger field of view in less time, and over 2,500 clinical and peer-reviewed studies which span 235 disease states, demonstrating optomap and clinical utility go hand in hand.
