LATEST ARRIVAL......OPTICAL COHERENCE TOMOGRAPHY (OCT)

Quick, safe and informative--this new Eye scanner is a glimpse into the future of patient care... ... It gives live cross sections magnified slices of various structures of the eye, giving a better insight in the treatment of the eye disease.

RETINAL OCT
Optical Coherence Tomography, “OCT” for short is a non-invasive technology used for imaging the retina, the multi-layered sensory tissue lining the back of the eye, is revolutionizing the early detection and treatment of eye conditions such as macular holes, pre-retinal membranes, macular swelling and even optic nerve damage.

Similar to CT scans of internal organs, OCT uses the optical backscattering of light to rapidly scan the eye and describe a pixel representation of the anatomic layers within the retina. Each of these ten important layers can be differentiated and their thickness can be measured.

Having the ability to follow-up certain retinal conditions with serial OCT studies has greatly enhanced our quality of patient care.

GLAUCOMA OCT
The Glaucoma module of the OCT helps in the better understanding and management of the glaucoma. OCT is one of the advanced tools to early detect glaucoma as early as 20% damage.

ANTERIOR SEGMENT OCT
Pachymetry, angle measurement and epithelium/LASIK flap measurement makes the CAM option a valuable imaging tool. The CAM option extends the RTVue clinical functionality to include:

• LASIK Flap Pachymetry Map


• Keratoconus Analysis


• TISA 500 / AOD Angle Measurement
  
• Epithelium / Lasik Flap Measurement Angle


• Measurement Anterior Lens Assessment


• Phakic IOL Vault Measurement


• Shunt / Implant Imaging
  
• Foreign Body Documentation


• Surgical / Pathology Scar Monitoring
