Is optical coherence tomography worth it?
Apr 08 , 2025
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a valuable imaging technology with diverse applications in medicine, particularly in ophthalmology and cardiology. Its utility depends on the clinical context, but here’s a comprehensive evaluation of its benefits and considerations: Key Benefits of OCT 1. Non-Invasive and Safe - OCT uses light waves (e.g., near-infrared) instead of radiation or invasive probe...

Common causes: tractional retinal detachment (TRD) is mainly caused by the traction of the fibrous vascular membrane on the surface of the retina or within the vitreous. Adult TRD is most commonly seen in proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR), retinal vein occlusion (RVO), retinal vasculitis and proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR). In addition, trauma, sickle cell retinopathy and uveitis, etc...

Exudative Retinal Detachment (ERD) is a lesion in which the neuroepithelial layer of the retina separates from the pigment epithelial layer without holes. The core mechanism is the destruction of the blood-retinal barrier or the imbalance of choroidal osmotic pressure, resulting in abnormal accumulation of plasma, lipids or blood in the subretinal space. Unlike rhegmatogenous or tractional detachm...

I. What is OCT? A Core Metaphor Let's understand OCT through a vivid analogy: Imagine a fresh sandwich. A regular camera can only capture its top view (a two-dimensional photo). OCT, however, acts like a precise “optical scalpel.” It can slice the sandwich layer by layer without damage, capturing ultra-high-resolution images of each component (bread, vegetables, meat slices). These cross-sectional...

What are the advantages of Eye Atomization Dry Eye Ophthalmic Nebulizer?
Sep 26 , 2025
I. Core Technological advantages: More efficient therapeutic effects Ultrafine atomization for more efficient absorption: Advantages: It breaks down the liquid medicine or artificial tears into extremely fine mist-like particles (usually with diameters ranging from 1 to 5 micrometers), which are much smaller than those of traditional eye drops. This enables the drug to cover the entire ocular surf...
