The Essential+ includes an Ultra Wide Digital Retinal Scan that is 4x wider than a standard Digital Retinal Scan, revealing far more of the retina and blood vessels to assist with early detection of ocular and general health issues that relate to retinal changes. The Optos Daytona Ultra Wide Digital Retinal Scan is available in most Laubman & Pank stores. The images are added to your eye health record and over time your optometrist can compare to see if there are any changes with your eye health.

ESSENTIAL TOTAL CARE
Benefit from all the tests, scans and screenings with our Essential Total Care package, with the added reassurance of an Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) exam that looks deep below the visible surface of the eye to reveal the hidden layers beneath and may detect issues that would be hard to detect without this ground-breaking technology. OCT exams are available in a number of Laubman & Pank stores.
