OCT Angiography

OCT Angiography

OCT angiography maps the blood vessels of the retina without injecting dye. It shows circulation layer by layer, which conventional photography cannot do.

Why it matters

• Diabetic retinopathy — areas of poor circulation identified early.
• Vascular occlusions — blocked retinal vessels mapped precisely.
• Macular degeneration — abnormal new vessel growth detected without a dye study.

For patients with diabetes, this is one of the clearest early windows onto how well the condition is controlled overall.
