Understanding OCT Scans
Through the use of light waves, OCT scans capture detailed images of the retina, presenting its distinctive layers that cannot be seen through standard examination methods. This ‘behind-the-scenes’ look is pivotal for early detection, diagnosis, and treatment of a range of eye conditions.
Why Choose Hastings Optical?
- Advanced Technology: Our clinic employs the NIDEK RS-330 Retina Scan Duo, an advanced OCT system that provides ultra-high-resolution images, comprehensive analysis, and patient comfort through quick, non-invasive scanning.
- Comprehensive Care: The enhanced imaging capabilities of the OCT scan mean our optometrists can detect signs of conditions such as glaucoma, macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy earlier than ever before.
- Expert Team: Trained in the intricacies of the retina and the interpretation of OCT scans, our optometrists provide thorough explanations of your results, offering peace of mind and a clear path forward.
- Preventative Approach: Early detection is key in the management of many eye conditions, many of which show no symptoms until vision loss has occurred. Regular OCT scans help monitor and maintain eye health, offering a preventive strategy that could make all the difference.
