Optical Coherence Tomography (Swept Source)

Optical Coherence Tomography (Swept Source)

Optical Coherence Tomography or OCT is a non-invasive imaging technology that captures high resolution cross-sectional images of the eye’s posterior segment structures including the vitreous, retina, macula, optic nerves and the choroid.

OCT technology has developed rapidly and has evolved from Time-domain OCT to Spectral domain OCT and the newest Swept-source OCT.

Clinical application of OCT enables a more comprehensive observation and analysis of the physiological and pathological changes in the posterior segment of the eye such as abnormal changes caused by diabetes, glaucoma and macular degeneration.
