Image for OCT angiography

OCT angiography

OCT angiography is a non-invasive imaging technique that captures detailed images of blood vessels in the eye, particularly in the retina. It uses light waves to create cross-sectional pictures, allowing doctors to see the flow of blood in real-time without the need for injections. This technology helps in diagnosing and monitoring eye diseases such as diabetic retinopathy and age-related macular degeneration. By providing clear images of blood flow, OCT angiography aids in better understanding and managing conditions that affect vision.
