Davis Vision Center announces the arrival of new technology

Tuesday, March 16th, 2010

Announcing the arrival at Davis Vision Center of new technology.  Davis Vision Center has just acquired a new technology that allows us to image parts of your eye in exquisite detail. This technology is called Optical Coherence Tomography or OCT. The instrument, called the Cirrus OCT, is manufactured by Carl Zeiss  Meditec  a German company.  It is a Fourier-Domain OCT that uses optical interference patterns to obtain microscopic 3D images of your eye particularly the retina, optic nerve, as well as the cornea and lens. We can use this instrument to detect and follow diseases such as macular degeneration, glaucoma, epiretinal membranes, diabetic retinal or macular edema, macular holes and traction, retinal detachment, and many others. Davis Vision Center is one the first general ophthalmology practices in Utah to offer this technology.
