Professional OCT Image Tests Based in Richmond, London
At Eye Definition, we use the latest technology to ensure the best possible eye care for our patients. One of the technology we use is Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT). This non-invasive imaging test uses light waves to take detailed cross-sectional images of the retina, the nerve tissue at the back of the eye. These images allow our optometrist to detect and diagnose a wide range of eye conditions such as age-related macular degeneration, glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy and more. OCT is quick, painless and does not require any eye drops, making it a convenient option for all ages. This technology helps us to provide early diagnosis, and thus early treatment, which leads to better outcome for the patient. Book an appointment with us today to experience the benefits of OCT.
