Description of the study
Angio OCT (OCTA) is an OCT examination of the macula with imaging of the retinal and choroidal vessels using spectral tomography. Imaging of the vessels is done at different depths of the retina and choroid so that it is possible to localize lesions and determine their nature. OCTA does not require the administration of contrast and is a completely non-invasive procedure.
Course of the examination: To visualize the relevant area on the fundus, the patient is asked to direct his or her gaze in different directions. Periodically, the patient may be asked to refrain from blinking. It may be necessary to dilate the pupils with drops - this is decided by the doctor. The examination is painless, the light beam with which the camera takes measurements is completely safe for the eye.
