OCT scans can help detect sight-threatening eye conditions much earlier than ever before. For example, glaucoma can be detected up to four years earlier!⠀⠀
⠀⠀
In just a few seconds, an OCT scan can take over 1,000 images of the back of your eye, right back to the optic nerve. This gives us a layered image to show an intricate picture of your eye and its structures and we can then track even the tiniest changes over time which could help indicate the early signs of conditions like macular degeneration, glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy well before you have any symptoms.
