Macula checks are very important as the this part of your eye does the majority of the work involved in sight.

At Looking Smart Optometrists we use a digital fundus camera to check the macula properly. The photo on the left is a normal eye, the right is one with "Wet" Macula Degeneration. This is easily detectable with our digital fundus camera's and we do photos like the one above on each and every patient. Products like Lucentis and Avastin could have been used to treat this condition if it was found in time.
