Medical Description

Comprehensive Clinical Overview

The optical equivalent of an in-vivo microscopic retinal biopsy. Infrared light waves generate cross-sectional 3D images of all 10 retinal layers down to 3-5 microns, revealing microscopic fluid accumulations before vision drops.

Ideal Candidate Profile:

Patients with diabetic macular edema, age-related macular degeneration (AMD), macular holes, central serous chorioretinopathy, or glaucoma suspects.

Why Choose The Eyes for this Procedure:

Detects sub-clinical macular edema weeks before permanent vision damage occurs
Completely painless, non-contact, and takes under 3 minutes per eye
Provides objective numerical measurements to track surgical and medical recovery

Common Symptoms & Clinical Indications

Patients suffering from these visual or physical complaints are typically recommended for this intervention:

Distorted central sight (straight lines appear wavy)
Dark patch in center of vision
Diabetic macular swelling
Glaucoma optic nerve thinning
All cases are evaluated through objective high-resolution slit-lamp and digital scan diagnostics.

Clinical Workflow

Step-by-Step Surgical & Diagnostic Protocol

Phase 1

01. Automated 3D Macular Volume Scan

High-speed infrared beam scans central macula without bright blinding flashes.

Phase 2

02. Retinal Layer Segmentation

Computerized segmentation measures exact retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) and foveal thickness.

Phase 3

03. Progression Comparison Tracking

Compares against previous clinic visits to evaluate response to anti-VEGF injections or glaucoma drops.
