Expert Diabetic Eye Exams in Greater Philadelphia
Managing diabetes correctly means adapting to new concerns, often beyond blood sugar — and your vision is one of those concerns. At Aegis Eyecare, we provide specialized diabetic eye exams designed to detect early signs of diabetic retinopathy, and insidious disease that we can detect well before symptoms even show. Our staff has the state-of-the-art tech and tailored care you need to avoid long-term harm to your vision.
What are Diabetic Eye Exams?
Diabetic eye exams focus on identifying early warning signs of diabetic retinopathy. Diabetes can cause a large number of problems to your vision, the least of which is total blindness. Our exams are customized specifically to you, and go beyond a routine check-up — we use specialized diagnostic tools like retinal imaging, dilation, and Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) to get a complete view of your eye health.
What does that all mean? Well, we'll show you when you're here! We educate you and show you the ins and outs of your exam, so you're better equipped to make informed decisions about your own health. Our ultimate goal is to return control of your eye health to you.
Why Are Diabetic Eye Exams Important?
Diabetic retinopathy is a sneaky condition: it develops without noticeable symptoms. That’s why regular diabetic eye exams are essential. By using advanced imaging techniques, we can detect warning signs before symptoms even develop. Our amazing technology gives us the chance to know more about your vision than you do; use us to your advantage, because we can help you avoid serious eye issues down the road.
