The Heidelberg Retinal Tomograph (HRT) set the standard for analyzing 3D structural change to the retina, especially in examining the optic nerve head. The secret of treating Glaucoma is catching it early when it is manageable.

These 3D images and the associated software lets us at Mt Tam Vision Center better predict the development of Glaucoma and when to start treatment. The Heidelberg HRT also allows us to evaluate structural changes associated with other retinal conditions such as retinal edema, diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration as well as many neurological problems such as brain tumors and Multiple sclerosis.
