We are proud to offer a glimpse into the future of eye care with a new retinal scanner utilizing technology called optical coherence tomography, or OCT for short. In fact, this Thursday will be our OCT day! The OCT retinal scanner is able to take a rapid, high-def biopsy of your retina, making the retina's inner workings transparent to a degree unimaginable even a few years ago. After examining a slice of your retina, the multi-layered sensory tissue lining the back of the eye, we are able to determine the cause of many vision problems. The OCT retinal scanner is quick, safe, and never touches the eye. It provides cross-sectional images of the retina that are revolutionizing the early detection and treatment of eye conditions such as macular holes, diabetic eye disease, macular degeneration, and glaucoma. –Dr. Mike Assell
