Retina scan 25/03/2013

Retinografia miopia patologica

A retina scan is a diagnostic test that, like a photograph, provides an image of the back of the eye or retina. This procedure can be used to detect different illnesses that affect the retina, such as age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy or retinitis pigmentosa.

A retina scan, which only requires the application of collyria to dilate the pupil, is a simple, painless, useful and safe test.
