Advanced Eye Scans with the Optopol Revo FC OCT at Maudsley Opticians

At Maudsley Opticians, we are committed to providing the highest standard of eye care using the latest technology. Our Optopol Revo FC Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) scanner allows us to take highly detailed, 3D cross-sectional images of your eyes, helping us detect and manage a range of eye conditions earlier and more accurately than ever before.

 

What is OCT and Why is it Important?

OCT is a non-invasive imaging technique that allows us to see beneath the surface of the retina, giving us a detailed view of the structures inside your eye. This technology is essential for detecting eye conditions at their earliest stages—before noticeable symptoms appear—ensuring faster diagnosis and better treatment outcomes.

 

Key Benefits of Our OCT Scanning 

 

✔ Glaucoma-Specific Analysis – Our Optopol Revo FC features advanced glaucoma screening, allowing us to detect early signs of optic nerve damage. By analysing the retinal nerve fibre layer (RNFL) and ganglion cell complex (GCC), we can identify changes long before traditional eye tests would pick them up.

 

✔ Axial Length Measurement for Myopia Control – For children undergoing myopia management, tracking axial length (the length of the eyeball) is crucial. Our OCT allows us to accurately measure axial growth over time, helping us fine-tune myopia control treatments like Hoya MiYOSMART lenses and MiSight® contact lenses for maximum effectiveness.

 

✔ Early Detection of Eye Diseases – The Revo FC OCT can detect the earliest signs of serious conditions such as:

  • Glaucoma – Monitoring optic nerve health and pressure-related damage.
  • Macular Degeneration – Identifying changes in the macula that could lead to vision loss.
  • Diabetic Retinopathy – Detecting early damage to the retina from diabetes.
  • Vitreous and Retinal Disorders – Examining structural changes that can affect vision.

✔ A Comprehensive View of Your Eye Health – Unlike standard retinal photography, which only captures the surface of the retina, OCT provides a detailed, cross-sectional view of the deeper layers, giving us a more complete picture of your eye health.

 

Our advanced Optopol Revo FC OCT scanning ensures more precise diagnoses, earlier detection of eye conditions, and better long-term eye health management. Whether you're monitoring for glaucoma, undergoing myopia control, or simply want the most thorough eye health check, book an OCT scan at Maudsley Opticians today.
