 In recent times, this type of radiation has become an urgent necessity for diagnosis and follow-up, especially for cases of glaucoma "blue water" and retinal diseases, as it is the first choice for cases of infiltration of the visual center before and after the injection of reducing substances into the eye, and currently it is considered one of the most modern and advanced devices, it is a technological shift in  Test quality, speed and accuracy.

 

 And with the question of Dr. Muhammad Hantira - Assistant Professor - Department of Ophthalmology - Umm Al Qura University - Saudi Arabia
  It was explained that the device is characterized by containing all the advanced functions that make it much easier for the patient to take pictures and give amazing results that greatly facilitate the diagnosis. The existing device of the type “Heidelberg spectralis OCT” that performs several advanced functions saves a lot on the patient because all the tests are in one device and not  He even has to go into another room for another examination.
 
   Also, all the tests with very high accuracy, so the device captures multicolored images of the retina and pictures of glow glow that are very important in some cases of the retina, especially diseases that affect the color cells of the retina.

 The great advantage of this device for the patient is that the examination is done without placing eye expansion drops at all, and that the follow-up of the retinal condition is done easily and easily and with unprecedented accuracy as the device captures the new image of the same area of the retina as the first image exactly and analyzes and compares it with great accuracy  To indicate any change to the center of vision and the optic nerve.

 The device also visualizes the blood vessels of the retina by photographing the movement of blood components inside the vessels, and it is an examination without a dye and is very useful in some cases of the retina, and this examination in the medical community is the future that we have been waiting for.
