Dr. Scott Campbell: This Tech Changes Way Eye Diseases are Identified and Diagnosed

Seattle, WA -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/19/2015 -- Local Seattle eyecare clinic, SPEX, introduces the newest innovative technology to be brought into the already technologically advanced practice, the Canon CR6-45NM Digital Retinal Imager. Dr. Scott Campbell, leading doctor at SPEX, comments, "Our practice is based on attention to detail, strong patient relationships, top quality eyewear fashion & lenses, and being on the leading edge of eyecare technology. This is why it is so important for us to add this latest piece to our eyecare offerings, in order to constantly offer the highest standard of patient care."

It is critical to confirm the health of the retina, optic nerve and other retinal structures. The digital camera snaps a high-resolution digital picture of your retina. This picture clearly shows the health of your eyes and is used as a baseline to track any changes in your eyes in future eye examinations. The Canon CR6-45NM Digital Retinal Imager is the latest and greatest in the world of retinal photography, and helps Dr. Campbell more accurately and successfully identify and diagnose common eye conditions. Dr. Campbell adds, "Using the digital retinal imager, we are able to take an image of the inside of a patient's eye and more accurately assess the overall health of the inside of the eye. It also helps diagnose conditions like diabetes and high blood pressure, and is helpful in the detection of cancer by looking for signs of cancerous lesions, as well as hemorrhages, glaucoma and macular degeneration.

The Canon Digital Retinal Imager boasts many advantages during an eye exam. No patient prep is required, and scanning is quick, safe, non-invasive and painless, using eye-safe near-infra-red light to eliminate patient discomfort. It is able to provide detailed, extremely high resolution images of your retina and sub-surface of your eyes and instant, direct imaging of the form and structure of eye tissue.

This, and other advanced technologies, make SPEX arguably one of the leading eyecare clinics in the Seattle area. "Having the most advanced technology possible is about more than simply having the 'coolest stuff.' It's about being able to provide our patients with better treatment, earlier and with greater accuracy than anyone has ever been able to provide to them before," says Dr. Campbell.

Cirrus HD-OCT Will Revolutionize Early Detection Of Common Eye Conditions

Seattle, WA -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/23/2014 -- Dr. Scott Campbell of SPEX in Seattle, Washington announced this week the addition of the revolutionary new Zeiss Cirrus HD-OCT.

Dr. Campbell comments on the addition of the Cirrus HD-OCT:

"Our practice is based on attention to detail, strong patient relationships, top quality eyewear fashion & lenses, and being on the leading edge of eyecare technology. True to the high-tech nature of SPEX eyecare, we use the best technology throughout our office, eye exams and customer care. As part of this we are excited to offer the new Cirrus HD-OCT, the next generation in advanced detection of many dangerous and common eye conditions including glaucoma, macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy. Although these conditions are often associated with advanced age, certain genetic dispositions, eye injuries and illness can cause these eye conditions to manifest themselves at any age. This is why advanced detection, with it's ability to catch eye conditions such as these early, are so important. Advanced technology often means early detection, which means early and accurate treatment. This leads, ultimately, to an overall better patient outcome. This is the reason that our practice places such an emphasis on providing our patients with the latest in eyecare technology."

The Cirrus HD-OCT takes 3 dimensional images of the eye, allowing Dr. Campbell and his team to see what's happening with individual layers of eye tissue. Using a specific wavelength of laser, Dr. Campbell takes a very detailed digital scan of all parts of your eye. The digital imaging procedure is quick, safe, non-invasive and painless, provides instant, direct imaging of the form and structure of eye tissue and uses eye-safe near-infra-red light.

Image resolution received from the Cirrus OCT is extremely high quality. After the scan, it is possible to digitally analyze slices of tissue as thin as 1/25,000 of an inch, making tracking changes in your eye easier and more precise than ever before. Since many eye conditions such as glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy and macular degeneration may advance very slowly and painlessly, you may not even know your eye sight is worsening. This makes being able to monitor changes in your eyes at the level made possible by the Cirrus HD-OCT extremely valuable. If Dr. Campbell and his team find that there are changes indicative of one of these eye conditions, being able to monitor changes in such minute detail also allows the formation of a treatment plan tailored exactly to the individual needs of your eyes.
