Barbara Horn, OD
Beach Eye Care and Audiology - USA
“I had used Optos technology for over five years in other practices. I opened my practice with a very nice retinal camera and OCT, but it just wasn't the same as having the single-capture ultra-widefield (UWF™) view that an optomap image provides.”

Vue Opticial Boutique - USA
“Simply put, optomap had the most comprehensive picture of the retina I have seen."
David Gould
David Gould Opticians - UK

David Way, OD
Spring Klein Vision Center - USA
"I knew I had to move forward with the purchase when I saw the multi-modality capabilities of Monaco. The fact that I can pull up color, autofluorescence & OCT on both eyes, at the same time, gives me a full spectrum view..."
Denise Kniefel, OD
Rosemount Eye Clinic - USA

Faye McDearmid
Campbell & McDearmid Optometrist - UK

Giles Price
Christopher Nixon Optometrists - UK

that you are serious about ocular health.”
Joel Hayden, OD
Hayden Optometric - USA
“We found three retinal holes in the periphery of a young, otherwise healthy, asymptomatic patient...and that was the sale right there. To be able to see these peripheral detachments and save a 14-year-old girl’s vision was certainly worth the investment.”
Jonathan Laudadio, OD
Discover Eyecare - CA
" With the Optos UWF, I know that I've managed to see over 80% of the whole retina. I'll still perform a full examination, of course, but it gives me a pretty good idea of what's going on right from the start."
Joseph Trull, OD
Pacific Eyecare of Port Orchard - USA

Mark Kapperman, OD
Kapperman & White - USA
“A 200° optomap image shows us so much of the periphery that we may not have otherwise seen. And it allows us to explain the need for a dilated exam more clearly, too.”
Martine Dalton
Chandlers Opticians - UK
“Since introducing the Daytona plus into both our practices we can confidently say that our level of patient care has been taken to a new level.”
Maurice Wilson, OD
Wilson Vision Associates - USA

Nick Hansen, OD
Hansen Optometrists - AU
“I would even say that the scope of the optomap image is better than 9 out of 10 dilated exams. I believe it would be wise to bring it into any practice sooner rather than later. If you don’t have the ability to perform an UWF retinal...”
Nicole Kish, OD
Visionworks - USA
“Every day, I see some kind of disease process that’s occurring. I might not have caught some of these pathologies without using ultra-widefield retinal imaging during a routine vision exam. I’ve become better at detecting subtle signs..."
Parant Bhudia

Rosemary McWatters
Rosemary McWatters Opticians - UK

Ryan Powell, OD
Vision Source Eye Care - USA
"Use the Daytona on every patient, every time for a screening tool. Then you can use the medical images for cases as needed. That additional revenue will not only pay for your Daytona, but it will offset the cost of an OCT."
