of an employee’s eye health
today is an important part of
tracking changes in the future.
Retinal Imaging benefit offered by EyeMed.
An affordable tool for helping eye care professionals assess
your employees’ ocular health status.
Early detection of the most common eye
conditions is important in identifying
successful treatment options. Retinal imaging
is another service EyeMed participating
in-network providers may offer to help with
early detection.
A fast and easy retinal image may help
identify potential areas of concern before
they impact an employee’s ocular health. The
retina is the only place in the body where
blood vessels can be viewed directly without
invasive procedures, meaning the retinal
image can provide clues to a person’s
systemic vascular health.
