Topcon's ophthalmic camera photographs the inside of your eye.
Topcon Retinal Scanner
The Topcon ophthalmic digital camera captures detailed images of your eye's blood vessels, lens, and cornea. This not only presents a visual picture of your eye's overall health, but spots potential problems with your blood pressure, cholesterol, or diabetes.

The office stores your retinal photos in your digital records. When you return for your next visit, the staff compares your new photos with the old, revealing any changes that could signal potential problems.
The HDTV presentation helps explain your eye's behavior in common language rather than scientific jargon.

You'll learn how different types of contact lenses fit your eyes in different ways, as well as see animations of why different parts of your eyes behave.
