[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 1789812, member: 94045"] I had my retinal screening done on Monday. I asked the technician why some people do not have the dilation drops. She said without them the images are dark and not as clear as with them, which is why they are always recommended to everyone (unless they are known to react badly). I also asked about high street opticians. She said they do occasionally out source to Specsavers when they are overloaded, but the machinery is not as advanced and only one person looks at the images. On the screening service always 2 people look at them on large enhanced screens and if they disagree, a third person is called in. [/QUOTE]
