OCT
Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) is a non-invasive imaging technique offered at Desai Eye Hospital to capture high-resolution, cross-sectional images of the retina and optic nerve. OCT uses light waves to provide detailed views of the layers of the retina, allowing ophthalmologists to detect early signs of eye conditions such as macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, and retinal diseases.
The procedure involves the patient looking into a specialized machine while it captures images of the retina and optic nerve without the need for any contact or discomfort. OCT provides valuable insights into the health of the retinal layers and can detect abnormalities such as fluid accumulation, thinning, or swelling, which may not be visible through traditional eye exams. This technology is essential for diagnosing and monitoring conditions that could lead to vision loss. At Desai Eye Hospital, OCT is used to develop accurate, personalized treatment plans, ensuring the best possible care for patients and enabling timely intervention for optimal eye health.
How Does It Work?
- Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) is a non-invasive imaging technique for the eye.
- it captures detailed cross-sectional images of the retina and optic nerve.
- OCT uses light waves to create high-resolution, 3D images of eye structures.
- The procedure helps diagnose conditions like macular degeneration and glaucoma.
- It detects retinal thickness, fluid buildup, and optic nerve damage.
- OCT provides real-time results, aiding in early detection and treatment planning.
- The test is painless and typically takes just a few minutes.
- Follow-up OCT scans monitor disease progression and the effectiveness of treatments.
