OCT OF MCULAR DISEASES DEHGHANI.A
near infrared light • cross-sectional images of tissue • High resolution) 10 µ ( • Non contact
highest reflections →red and white colours • Lowestreflections→blue and black
2 red bands →RNFL and RPE • green/yellow band →Ganglions cell layer • blue/black band → Photoreceptor layer
Reflectivity • Increased : inflammatory infiltrate, fibrosis, exudates and hemorrhage • Decreased reflectivity : retinal edema, hypopigmentation of the RPE • decreased uniformly :abnormalities of the media )small pupil (
Retinal thickness Increased : accumulation of intraretinal fluid (diabetic retinopathy, cystoid macular oedema, retinal traction (Decreased :scarring or atrophy

ROLE OF OCT IN DIABETIC MACULAR EDEMA A.Defining the Disease Pattern B. Defining Indications for Pars Plana Vitrectomy C. Longitudinal Tracking of Tissue Alteration following An Intervention
Defining the Disease Pattern 1.Sponge-like retinal thickness 2.Cystoid macular edema 3. Subfoveal serous retinal detachment 4. Foveal tractional retinal detachment 5. Taut posterior hyloid membrane
OCT IN AMD • Disease categorization • Management issues • Define indications for therapy • Monitor response to the therapy
NON-NEOVASCULAR ARMD -Drusens - Geographic Atrophy • Neovascular ARMD -classic CNV -occult CNV -serous PED -hemorrhagic PED -fibrovascular PED
OCT helps in the management of ARMD in the following ways: -Disease categorization -Early occult CNVM -Associated changes -Response to treatment
OCT IN CSCR • Typical CSCR -Serous retinal detachment -Serous retinal detachment with PED • Atypical CSCR -Small PEDs -Chronic CSCR -CSCR in elderly
OCT in diagnosing complications of CSCR → CNV → Subretinal fibrin → RPE rip → Neurosensory atrophy of fovea
SOLAR BURN • Diagnose subtle changes in the RPE-photoreceptorcomplex
OCT IN EPIRETINAL MEMBRANE • Confirming the diagnosis • Identify the structural alterations • Longitudinal tracking of these eye following of vitrectomy
