Indicators might include diabetes, high blood pressure, complaints of fl ashes, fl oaters, side vision loss, high prescription, one seeing eye, history of trauma, or you are not correcting to 20/20 during the exam. Examination of the internal structures in greater detail is done using pupillary dilation or retinal photography. Retinal photography takes a quick picture of the internal structures of the eyes. Dilation drops are usually not needed. With retinal pictures the patient leaves seeing exactly as they did when they walked into the offi ce. In addition the pictures are permanent part of your record from which to refer to in order to monitor the health of your eyes in subsequent years. The images will be shared with you during your visit. The cost is $39 dollars if your insurance does not cover it.Patients reserve the right to refuse any test or diagnostic procedure recommended. If a patient refuses they assume all the risk for potentially not detecting any serious eye condition.Do you want this procedure?
