What is retinal OCT?
Retinal OCT is an advanced imaging technology that is non-invasive, painless and bloodless. Based on the results of OCT, doctors can accurately diagnose diseases such as: glaucoma, retinal diseases such as age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, central serous chorioretinopathy, choroidal vascular polyps, etc.
The OCT method does not directly contact the eye, does not cause any complications and does not cause discomfort to the patient, allowing it to be performed multiple times on the same patient. OCT allows both qualitative and quantitative research of retinal structures. During the process of treatment orientation, monitoring and prognosis, OCT allows analysis, measurement, mapping, storage of images and data, data... of previous examinations and has a program to compare results between examinations. This is very important in monitoring the progression of the disease and the effectiveness of treatment.
