How TSO South Austin & Buda Uses Advanced Tech for Eye Disease Detection

When it comes to protecting your vision, early detection of eye diseases is key. At Texas State Optical - Buda, we use state-of-the-art diagnostic technology to detect even the earliest signs of vision-threatening conditions. By combining expert care with advanced imaging tools, we’re able to provide precise evaluations and personalized treatment plans that help safeguard your long-term eye health.
 

Optos Widefield Retinal Imaging

Our Optos imaging system allows us to capture ultra-widefield views of the retina in just seconds. Unlike traditional methods that only show a small portion of the retina, Optos provides a comprehensive, high-resolution image. This helps us detect conditions such as retinal tears, detachments, diabetic retinopathy, and age-related macular degeneration at their earliest stages.
 

Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT)

OCT technology gives us a detailed, cross-sectional view of the retina’s layers. Think of it as an ultrasound for the eye - but with light waves instead of sound. OCT is essential for detecting subtle changes in the retina and optic nerve, making it invaluable for diagnosing and monitoring glaucoma, macular degeneration, and diabetic eye disease.
 

Visual Field Testing

Visual field testing measures your peripheral vision, which is often affected first in conditions like glaucoma. By tracking even the smallest blind spots, we can detect early vision changes that may not yet be noticeable in your day-to-day life. Regular visual field tests play an important role in preventing irreversible vision loss.
 

Retinal Imaging Testing

Retinal imaging allows us to take high-quality photographs of the back of your eye, creating a permanent record of your eye health. These images help us monitor changes over time and provide an in-depth look at blood vessels, the optic nerve, and the macula. Retinal imaging is particularly effective for detecting early signs of conditions linked to overall health, such as hypertension and diabetes.
