Why do we dilate your pupils? 🤔 Dilating your pupil lets more light into your eye — just like opening a door lets light into a dark room! This helps Dr. Checkley have a better view of your eye to check for many ocular conditions, including diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, and age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Once we have the drops in your eyes, we usually let them marinate for 15-20 minutes before we come back to take a look! 🙌 #eyedoctor #optometrist #eyehealth #eyecare #trend #trending
