This new high-performance OCT instrument from Carl Zeiss Meditec offers a quantum leap forward in imaging. Featuring spectral domain technology, Cirrus HD-OCT delivers exquisite high-definition images of ocular structures.
The earliest sign of glaucoma it the thinning of the nerve fiber layer of the retina. Dr. Liva uses the most advanced diagnostic tool available to detect abnormalities in a patient's nerve fiber layer at the earliest possible moment. The Cirrus HD-OCT is a High Definition Spectral Domain Imaging Laser that performs 27000 scans per second of the optic nerve fiber layer. Measurements are obtained with a resolution of 5 microns. These measurements are compared to a powerful database to compare your results with normal levels for people of your gender, age, and race. The data is stored in a personal file for future reference as a baseline to allow better detection of glaucoma and also to monitor treatment success in patients with known glaucoma on medication. With the Cirrus HD-OCT early diagnosis of glaucoma is possible and loss of vision can be prevented.
The macula can be scanned to diagnose and manage a variety of retinal diseases including:
