Ophthalmic Imaging

Ophthalmic imaging is a highly specialized form of medical imaging which creates detailed images to support the diagnosis and treatment of a range of eye conditions. It covers a wide range of scope of photographic services that incorporates many aspects of commercial and medical photography. Ophthalmic photography can be done through the use of highly specialized equipment used to document parts of the eye like the cornea, iris, and retina. Images passing through the clear structures of the cornea and lens are focused there to give us our view of the world. Special instruments called fundus cameras, when used by skilled photographers, can document the condition of this miraculous anatomical structure. It allows the clinician to record the findings from clinical ocular examination in an objective, reproducible, transmissible and durable manner.
