Most of the time, the results of a standard sight test are ideal. However, what if you start to see little grey flecks floating around your sight suddenly? Or, one morning you wake up with a red eye? These, and many other such circumstances are not often covered under the sight test – you need specialised investigations, including retinal imaging.
Retinal imaging or retinal photography is the process of taking a digital picture of your retina, optic disc and the blood vessels at the back of your eye. This helps to identify any existing or potential eye disease and also check the health of your eyes.
