Sarah Gibson Has Acquired a New High Tech Optomap Scanner
Every five seconds one person in the world goes blind. A child goes blind every minute.
80% of blindness is avoidable.
People over the age of 65 have a 30% chance of developing age macular degeneration. It is the leading cause of blindness for those aged 65 and over.
Approximately 2.2 million Americans over the age of 40 have Glaucoma, yet half are unaware they have the disease until their sight is compromised.

That's a scary image, but our point is that we will be able to see so much more with the Optomap. The Optomap takes a photograph of the back of your eye allowing Sarah to see your retina clearly. This digital scanner has been trialled and tested with great success and the results are impressive.
"Using normal digital techiniques examining the retina is like using a torch in the dark. Using Optomap is like turning on the lights."
Richard C Arnold, Optometrist and Contact Lens Practitioner.
The Optomap will allow Sarah to view 200 degrees of your retina, which is FIVE times more than the standard digital retinal examinations today. Sarah won't need to dilate your pupils to obtain a clear image which means the whole procedure is slightly quicker. All scans will be kept as a permanent record of your eye's health.
