OCT

Your eyesight is precious, and it deserves the very best treatment. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a revolutionary imaging technique that enables us to see beneath the surface of your eye in unprecedented detail.

What is OCT?

OCT is like an ultrasound for your eyes, but instead of sound waves, it uses light waves to capture high-resolution, cross-sectional images of your retina. This non-invasive, painless procedure takes just a few minutes and provides us with a comprehensive view of your eye’s internal structures.

Benefits of OCT

OCT can reveal early signs of eye conditions before you experience any symptoms, allowing for timely intervention. Because it’s so detailed, we can track subtle changes in your eye health over time with micron-level precision. It shows us all the layers of your retina, something not possible with traditional eye exams.

It’s non-invasive, making it quick and comfortable, and it doesn’t require any direct contact with your eye.

What Can OCT Diagnose?

Our state-of-the-art OCT technology can help detect and monitor a wide range of eye conditions, including:

  • glaucoma

  • age-related macular degeneration (AMD)

  • diabetic retinopathy

  • macular holes or oedema

  • vitreous detachments

  • optic nerve disorders

By identifying these conditions in their earliest stages, we can often begin treatment before they impact your vision significantly.

OCT vs Optomap: Complementary Technologies

While both OCT and Optomap are advanced imaging technologies, they serve different purposes in your eye examination.

Where OCT provides a cross-sectional view of your retina’s layers, Optomap captures a wide-field image of the retina’s surface, providing a broad view of up to 82% of your retina in a single image.

Together, these technologies offer a comprehensive view of your eye health. To learn more about Optomap, visit our dedicated page.
