Digital Retinal Imaging

We have recently invested in a KOWA Nonmydriatic retinal camera. This instrument allows us to examine and record your eye health in greater detail than before.

For most patients, imaging is very simple and only involves a camera flash. Some patients with very small pupils may require a mild drop to enlarge the pupil sufficiently for imaging.

Patients with a family history of glaucoma, diabetes or macular degeneration will benefit from our ability to record and compare the condition of their eyes over several years. We can also use the KOWA camera to document other eye conditions such as pterygiums and cataracts.

Imaging - who will benefit?

Digital Retinal Imaging is recommended for patients with:

  • diabetes

  • macular degeneration

  • glaucoma

  • other retinal disorders

  • reduced vision

  • patients over 40 years of age

  • any unusual ocular findings

  • or anyone with a family history of the above.

Cost

Digital Retinal Imaging has been made possible by advances in technology and is currently not covered by Medicare.* Your consultation may be covered by Medicare, however if you choose to have Digital Retinal Imaging included, there will be an additional out-of-pocket charge. Our current charges are:

  • Digital Retinal Imaging $30

  • Digital Retinal Imaging - pensioners $20

Should this cost represent a difficulty please discuss this with your optometrist.

*The Medicare status may change in the future.
