Diabetic and Plaquenil Eye Exams

We’ve all heard the old saying “the eyes are a window to the soul”. Well, in eyecare, the eyes are definitely a window to the rest of the body. The eye is really the only place on your body where we can see your vascular system without first having to make an incision. Because of this, Dr. Newberry can tell a lot about your general health by examining your eyes. Through routine dilation of your pupils and/or through the use of advanced camera technology like the Optomap and the Optovue OCT Angiogram, EyeCare Texoma can photograph and evaluate the retina and the retinal vascular system.

Because the retinal vessels are some of the smallest anywhere in the body, and because we can actually visualize them and evaluate them, often times we are able to detect diabetic and plaquenil damage long before other medical professionals can. This enables us to prevent or minimize visual damage caused by many systemic diseases as well as aide your endocrinologists and rheumatologists in managing the systemic disease itself.
