Fundus Photography
Fundus photography provides a detailed color photograph of the retina — a valuable tool for documenting findings and tracking changes over time.
What Is Fundus Photography?
Fundus photography uses a specialized camera to capture high-resolution color images of the posterior segment of the eye — including the retina, optic nerve, macula, and retinal blood vessels. The procedure is non-invasive, painless, and takes only a few minutes.
What It Documents
- Retinal hemorrhages, exudates, and vascular changes from diabetic retinopathy or vein occlusion
- Drusen and pigment changes in macular degeneration
- Optic nerve appearance, cupping, and pallor
- Peripheral retinal findings including lattice degeneration and tears
- Choroidal lesions and nevi
- Post-treatment changes for comparison on follow-up
Wide-Field Imaging
Modern ultra-widefield cameras can capture up to 200 degrees of the retina in a single image. This is particularly valuable for detecting peripheral retinal pathology in diabetic retinopathy, uveitis, retinal dystrophies, and other conditions affecting the far periphery.
Role in Follow-Up Care
Serial fundus photographs provide an objective visual record of retinal changes over time. Comparing current photos to prior images allows us to identify subtle progression, confirm treatment response, and make more informed management decisions.
