At Sheridan Optometric Centre, we are committed to using the latest advancements in eye care technology to protect and preserve your vision.
That’s why we offer Optomap Monaco, an advanced retinal imaging system that provides a detailed, ultra-widefield view of the retina.
This innovative diagnostic tool allows for early detection of eye diseases and systemic conditions, ensuring comprehensive eye health monitoring with greater accuracy and convenience.
What Is Optomap Monaco?
Optomap Monaco is a cutting-edge retinal imaging system that captures a 200-degree, high-resolution image of the retina in less than half a second. Unlike traditional retinal imaging, which only captures a limited portion of the retina, Optomap Monaco provides a widefield scan, allowing our optometrists to detect early signs of eye diseases, including those that develop in the periphery of the retina.
Optomap Monaco includes autofluorescence imaging, which helps identify retinal changes associated with macular degeneration, diabetic eye disease, and other serious conditions.
Why Is Optomap Monaco Important for Your Eye Health?
Many eye diseases develop without noticeable symptoms in their early stages.
Conditions such as glaucoma, macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and retinal detachments often progress without pain or obvious vision changes. Optomap Monaco allows for:
- Early Detection of Eye Diseases – Identifies problems before symptoms appear.
- Non-Invasive & Fast Procedure – Takes seconds and requires no dilation in most cases.
- Comprehensive Retinal Evaluation – Provides a detailed, ultra-widefield image for a full assessment of retinal health.
Detection of Systemic Health Issues – Can reveal signs of high blood pressure, diabetes, and other vascular conditions affecting eye health.
What to Expect During Your Optomap Monaco Scan
The Optomap Monaco exam is a quick and painless process:
- ️You’ll be asked to look into the Optomap device one eye at a time.
A low-intensity flash of light captures an image of your retina in less than a second. - Your optometrist will review the high-resolution image with you, explaining any findings and discussing preventive care if needed.
- For most patients, this eliminates the need for dilation, allowing you to return to your daily activities without light sensitivity or blurred vision.
Who Should Get an Optomap Monaco Scan?
Optomap Monaco is recommended for all patients, but it is particularly beneficial for those with:
- Diabetes or a family history of diabetic eye disease
- Glaucoma or macular degeneration risk factors
- A history of retinal issues, including retinal tears or detachments
- High blood pressure, which can affect blood vessels in the retina
- A desire for the most comprehensive and advanced eye exam available
