Detecting Invisible Vision Problems

Imagine seeing inside your eye, revealing what's not visible in the mirror. That's the power of our automated fundus camera, the Nidek AFC 330. It's a game-changer that has transformed the way we approach eye care.

Real-Life Scenarios, Real-Life Impact

Let us share a real-life scenario with you. An 18-year-old patient walked into Buena Vista Optical for a routine eye exam, seemingly healthy, with no complaints. Little did he know that our advanced retinal imaging would unveil a hidden threat — choroidal melanoma, a rare retina tumor. We didn't just tell him; we showed him, making all the difference in his understanding and motivation to seek immediate care.

Beyond the Ordinary

Not all optometry practices have the capabilities for retinal imaging, often due to insurance limitations. At Buena Vista Optical, we defy conventions. We understand that retinal photos are invaluable, regardless of age or medical history. That's why we provide Fundus photos for all our patients, making it a routine part of every eye exam.

The Nidek AFC 330 Difference

Our secret tool in early disease detection and patient education is the Nidek AFC 330 Fundus camera. It's not just user-friendly; it's patient-friendly too. This exceptional technology allows us to capture retinal photos from patients as young as two years old. Why is this important? Some eye conditions have roots from birth, and early monitoring and prompt care are critical for continued eye health.

Why Early Detection Matters

Early detection can mean the difference between preserving your vision and experiencing irreversible damage. Conditions like diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, and macular degeneration can be threats that progress silently without symptoms. Retinal imaging is our tool for early intervention.

A Visual Wake-Up Call

There's something incredibly impactful about seeing the state of your eye health. We've witnessed patients go from unaware to deeply concerned when they see bleeding inside their eyes due to diabetes. It's a wake-up call that ignites motivation for positive lifestyle changes.

Empowering Patients at Buena Vista Optical

Retinal imaging empowers our patients to take control of their eye health. It's not just about diagnosis, but prevention and proactive care. Even conditions like glaucoma, which are complex and often asymptomatic, can be managed effectively with early detection.

Defeating the Unseen Eye Problems

Some eye diseases, like glaucoma and macular degeneration, have no specific cause or cure. However, you can manage and slow their progression with early intervention. Drusen, a sign of macular degeneration, may start as tiny yellow particles. With the Nidek AFC 330, we can detect even the most minor signs, enabling timely action.

Beyond What You Can See

While patient education, early detection, diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, and macular degeneration are compelling reasons for retinal imaging, the possibilities are endless. There are countless eye diseases, each with its characteristics, and retinal imaging provides a window into the unseen.

We Care About Your Vision

At Buena Vista Optical, investing in a retinal camera like the Nidek AFC 330 is not just about pictures; it's about preserving vision, which is priceless. It's about allowing our patients to see beyond the ordinary to protect one of their most precious senses — sight.
