Retinal Wellness Imaging Screening
Dr. Smith. Dr. Stover, and Dr. Crissup want ALL patients to have a digital image of the retina annually. The fee is only $35 (it is usually not covered by insurance). There is no charge for self-pay eye exams.
Retinal and optic nerve problems such as macular degeneration, glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, and melanoma are easily documented, often without pupil dilation.
Early detection of eye disease is crucial!
***The flash during imaging is not recommended for patients with a history of epilectic seizures triggered by flashing lights. Please notify our staff if you have a history of such seizures.***
