NEW INSTRUMENTS/CASE DISCUSSION Speaker M Jayasree Moderators J Manju Anju
Contents • Optical Coherence Tomography • Microperimetry • Multifocal Electroretinogram • Glaucoma Diagnostics • GDx • HRT • GLAUCOMA OCT • HVF
OCULAR COHERENCE TOMOGRAPHY PRINCIPLE • Optical involves light and optics Used for Optical biopsy of retina. • Coherence– two light beams of same wave length in phase. Uses principle of low coherence interferometry. • Tomography Tome/Tomo – Greek for section /cutting
SDOCT Resolution – 6 microns Wavelength – 840 nm 3-D imaging No movement artifacts 25,000 A-scans/second Determining and visualizing structure that absorb and scatter light Noncontact Noninvasive
Indications • Retinal- macula and Optic nerve. • Inconclusive FFAs- done together. • Quantify extent of lesions ex-CNVM, thickness of macula. • Quantify RNFL thickness around Optic nerve head.

Multifocal electroretinogram • Simultaneous recording of focal retinal responses • Offers direct, objective and topographical mapping of central 36-40º of retinal function • Cone driven responses • Fovea, Para fovea and near peripheral photopic retina function can be evaluated.
mfERG Stimulus • Display contains array of hexagons- • Commonly used 103 hexagonal array • Scaling basis - Photoreceptor density • Produce local retinal responses of equal amplitude • Flickers according to pseudorandom binary m-sequence
1.6° 1.6°- 6° 6°-11.4° 11.4°-18.2° 18.2°-26.2° • 26.2°-35° • Waveforms grouping according to different retinal eccentricities • Subtends 35° horizontally and 31° vertically – viewing distance 53cm • The responses obtained from six zones
First order kernel responses- Interpretation Multiplot Trace Array
mfERG Components Parameters • N1 – First negative trough • P1- First positive Peak • Origins • Cone Photoreceptors • Dominated by on and off bipolar cells P1-IT P1- AMP N1- IT N1-AMP
Interpretation • Degenerative photoreceptor disease • Larger delay in implicit times • Local lesions damaging INL • Larger reduction in amplitudes • Damage to NFL or GCL • No reduction or delay
Clinical applications • To distinguish retinal diseases from optic nerve disease • Details extent of lesion • Sensitive indicator for retinal drug toxicity • Post-operative management following V-R surgery • Assess sub-clinical retinal changes in DR
