Optical Coherence Tomography

At Visionary Optical, we offer Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT). This is a specialised, non-invasive scan that provides detailed 3D images of the back of your eyes. This advanced technology gives us a deeper look at the internal structures of your eyes.

What an OCT Scan Tells Us
OCT uses light waves to create high-resolution cross-sectional images of the retina, like an ultrasound. This allows us to analyse the many layers of your eye in just a few seconds. These scans help detect and diagnose conditions such as Age-Related Macular Degeneration, Diabetic Retinopathy, Glaucoma, and other retinal diseases early. Early detection allows for prompt intervention and better monitoring of disease progression and treatment effectiveness.

The Process and Benefits of an OCT Scan
Early Detection: OCT scans can identify eye diseases much earlier than other tests, allowing for timely treatment.

Non-Invasive: The scan does not involve any eye drops and the instrumentation does not touch the eye. 

Effective Management: Detailed images help in tracking the progression of existing ocular conditions, enabling better management strategies.

Why Should You Get an OCT Scan?
OCT scans are crucial for monitoring and diagnosing various retinal and optic nerve conditions. Regular OCT scans are recommended, especially if you are at risk for these conditions or are undergoing treatment for an existing eye disease. This proactive approach helps in maintaining optimal eye health and preventing or slowing the progression of eye diseases.
