Come in today for your complete eye health exam
Healthy vision is an amazing gift. Imagine what it would be
like to lose your vision and the devastating impact it would have on your life.
Many eye diseases can rob you of your sight.
Fortunately most cases of severe vision loss and blindness can be
prevented with early detection, and today there are options available to help
your doctor identify disease early.
Doctor Jeff Sanger and Doctor Melinda Kennel are excited to offer
you a new, advanced test to evaluate the health of your eye and help detect glaucoma
and retinal disease. The Cirrus HD-OCT
performs a simple yet powerful test, which helps doctors identify early signs
of eye problems, which can lead to irreversible blindness. The test is quick, completely painless, and
does not touch the eye.
Diseases such as glaucoma, macular degeneration, and
diabetic retinopathy tend to progress without any symptoms in the early stages.
Age is a major risk factor for development of many eye conditions because they
typically develop over the course of one’s lifetime. That is why it is vital to
be tested for these conditions early with the Cirrus HD-OCT. The later a
disease is discovered, the more difficult it is to treat.
The Cirrus HD-OCT uses light to image the structures
in the back of the eye to help doctors detect changes in the retina caused by
diabetes, macular degeneration and other eye diseases. The information the
image provides can affect the doctor’s decision about the need for further
tests or treatment.
Early detection and monitoring can help your doctor make important decisions about your vision. Therefore, Prairie EyeCare Center highly recommends you take this convenient exam.
