Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) is a non-invasive imaging technique used at Bhavya Hospital to capture detailed images of the retina, the light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye. This advanced technology allows our eye specialists to see the different layers of the retina, helping them diagnose and monitor various eye conditions such as macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy and glaucoma. OCT scans are quick, painless and provide highly accurate information that helps in detecting early signs of eye diseases before they cause significant vision loss.

At Bhavya Hospital, OCT is a vital tool in our eye care services. It helps our doctors create personalized treatment plans by offering clear and detailed images of the retina’s structure. For patients with conditions like macular degeneration, OCT can show the thickness of the retina and detect fluid buildup, which is essential for planning treatments like injections or laser therapy. For those with diabetic retinopathy, OCT helps monitor changes in the blood vessels and detect swelling or bleeding in the retina, ensuring timely intervention to protect vision.

Regular OCT scans are important for monitoring the progress of eye treatments and ensuring that they are working effectively. At Bhavya Hospital, we use OCT not only for diagnosis but also for follow-up care, allowing our specialists to track how well the treatment is progressing. This continuous monitoring ensures that any changes in the retina are quickly addressed, helping to maintain and improve the patient’s vision over time.
