Powerful Imaging Capabilities
Eye disease requires a significant arsenal of imaging technology for screening, early detection, accurate diagnosis and tracking disease progression. At the UMass Memorial Eye Center, we have ophthalmology-specific tools for high-quality imaging, making diagnosis and treatment planning fast, efficient, and accurate.
Precision Medicine That Tailors Treatment to the Individual Patient
