any cases.


Limitations of Traditional Tools

  • Can’t measure retinal thickness

  • Misses sub-retinal fluid

  • Can't analyse macular or optic nerve layers


What OCT Adds

  • Cross-sectional images of the retina

  • Early detection of macular issues

  • RNFL and ganglion cell analysis for glaucoma

  • Full anterior chamber analysis

  • Posterior capsule analysis


See the Difference

Side-by-side images of fundus vs. OCT can reveal why some patients worsen despite normal fundus exams. With OCT, you don’t guess, you know. Doctors often debate OCT vs fundus photography, but OCT gives cross-sectional insights.


Are You Missing These Cases?

  • Patients with unexplained vision drop?

  • Diabetics with normal fundus but symptoms?

  • Early glaucoma suspects with borderline pressure?

If yes, you need OCT.
