Your eyesight is priceless - ​we are here to protect it

Vision-threatening diseases such as glaucoma, macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy often have no outward signs or symptoms in the early stages. We have started to use state-of-the-art technology known as OCT (optical coherence tomography) to assess the health of your eyes. This technology lets us see below the surface of the retina, which can help us detect vision-threatening and systemic diseases in their very early stages. These diseases are most treatable at this point. 

“Dr. Ringel noticed during my yearly eye exam that my vision was worse than it was just one year ago.  While looking into my eyes he saw some irregularity in my retina.  He then performed an OCT test which clearly showed that I was developing a hole due to a film forming inside my eye.  I especially liked the printout which showed me exactly how this was affecting my eye.  I would highly recommend this test if the doctor advises it.”

Easy Test Process

For the OCT eye test you simply remove your glasses or contact lenses and watch a green target inside the instrument. 

Immediate Results

Results are immediately available upon completion of the eye test.

Discuss Findings

Dr. Ringel will discuss any findings from the OCT eye test. Seeing your results is often more meaningful than any other type of explanation.
