Diabetes
Report
Stable and low blood sugar levels are important to maintain the health of the retina. Dilated retinal assessments provide an insight into the general health of your vascular system throughout your body, not just your eyes. It is recommended that people managing diabetes be examined on an annual basis.
Glaucoma
Report
The information received by the eye travels to the brain through nerve fibers. If the nerve tissue becomes too thin portions of a person's vision can become diminished. It is important to assess the general condition of the nerve fibers as well as monitor the pressure of the eye to promote lasting vision.
