Polypoidal Choroidal Vasculopathy

Polypoidal Choroidal Vasculopathy (PCV) should be investigated when subretinal fluid (SRF) is observed adjacent to the optic disc. En-face OCT imaging at the level of the ellipsoid zone (EZ) is a valuable tool for detecting SRF in these cases, providing a detailed view of fluid distribution and its impact on the retinal structure. This technique enhances diagnostic accuracy and helps guide treatment. #PCV #SubretinalFluid #EnFaceOCT…

Epiretinal membrane

Epiretinal membrane (ERM) can be effectively assessed using en-face OCT imaging at the level of the vitreoretinal interface (VRI). This technique provides a detailed top-down view, clearly outlining the extent and pattern of the membrane, including tractional changes it may impose on the retina. En-face VRI imaging is invaluable for monitoring ERM progression and planning surgical intervention if needed. #ERM #EnFaceOCT #VRI #RetinaImaging…

Polypoidal Choroidal Vasculopathy

In polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV), en-face OCT imaging at the level of the ellipsoid zone (EZ) is valuable for highlighting subretinal fluid. This imaging technique provides a detailed view of fluid accumulation beneath the retina, allowing for precise assessment of the extent and distribution of the fluid associated with PCV. Monitoring these changes is crucial for guiding treatment. #PCV #EnFaceOCT #EllipsoidZone…

Degenerative cystoid spaces following ERM peeling

Degenerative cystoid spaces can develop after epiretinal membrane (ERM) peeling, and they are best visualized using en-face OCT. This imaging technique provides detailed top-down views of the retina, revealing the cystoid spaces within the retinal layers. These spaces represent areas of retinal degeneration and fluid accumulation, which can affect visual recovery post-surgery. #ERM #CystoidSpaces #EnFaceOCT…

Central serous chorioretinopathy

Do you know how to use en-face OCT maps to identify the leakage point in acute central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC)? By using a customized map at the choroid level (on the Cirrus 6000: offset at 64 and thickness of 400), it is possible to identify areas of hypertransmission to the choroid as hyperreflective regions. This method can reduce the need for invasive exams like fluorescein angiography in these cases! #CSC #EnFaceOCT…
