OCT

OCT, or Optical Coherence Tomography, is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses light waves to capture detailed, cross-sectional images of the eye’s internal structures, especially the retina. It functions like an ultrasound but with light instead of sound, providing high-resolution images that help eye doctors detect and monitor conditions such as glaucoma, macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy. OCT allows for early diagnosis and precise assessment of eye health without discomfort or the need for invasive procedures, significantly improving patient care through detailed visualization of the eye’s microscopic layers.
