A non-invasive scan that produces high-resolution, cross-sectional images of the retina and optic nerve for early and precise diagnosis.
Optical coherence tomography uses light waves to capture detailed, layer-by-layer images of the retina and optic nerve, similar to a CT scan but for the back of the eye. It is completely painless and takes only a few minutes.
OCT detects subtle changes in macular and optic nerve thickness, making it indispensable for diagnosing and monitoring macular degeneration, diabetic macular oedema, glaucoma and many other conditions.
OCT stands for Optical Coherence Tomography. It is a scan that uses light waves to capture detailed, layer-by-layer cross-sectional images of the retina and optic nerve.
It is used to detect and monitor subtle changes in the retina and optic nerve. This makes it valuable for conditions such as macular degeneration, diabetic macular oedema and glaucoma.
No. An OCT scan is completely painless and non-invasive. Nothing touches your eye and no dye or injection is needed; you simply look at a target while the machine captures the images.
The scan itself takes only a few minutes. Your pupils may sometimes be dilated with drops first for a clearer view, which can make the overall visit a little longer.
Dye-based retinal imaging that reveals how blood is flowing through the retina, vital for diagnosing diabetic retinopathy, vein occlusions and macular disease.

Learn moreUltrasound imaging of the back of the eye, used to assess the retina and vitreous when a dense cataract or bleeding blocks the doctor's direct view.
Learn moreAdvanced, dye-free imaging that maps the tiny blood vessels of the retina, allowing detailed vascular assessment without any injection.
Learn moreComprehensive vitreoretinal surgery, including vitrectomy, for retinal detachment, diabetic complications, macular holes and other sight-threatening conditions.
Learn morePars plana vitrectomy (PPV) is a microsurgical, keyhole procedure that removes the vitreous gel through tiny incisions to repair the retina, used for retinal detachment, vitreous haemorrhage, macular holes, epiretinal membranes and advanced diabetic eye disease.
