1. Interpretation of SD-OCT Gella Laxmi 2009PHXF013P

2. How to go about…. Interpretation should proceed sequentially from vitreous towards choroid Evaluate each layers

3. Gray scale or conventional colors? Gray scale images – qualitatively superior Color images – misleading

4. Reflectivity Hyper reflective Lesions (Red )Hypo reflective Lesions (Black) (Fluid) ME PED SRF Fovealschisis ERM CNVM DRUSEN HE

5. Thickness Increased (edema, CNVM) Decreased

6. Morphology “Missing" retina"Extra" retinal tissue

7. Before advising OCT...... Answer 2 questions... “Why OCT in this case?”“What to look for in OCT?”

8. Diabetic Macular Edema Classify (FFA better) To R/O Foveolar detachment To R/O VMT ( Difficult clinically) Post treatment follow up Swelling – Focal /Diffuse / Cystoid Hard exudates Foveolar detachment Status of posterior hyaloid CWS, Hemorrhage

9. OCT classification of macular edema Diffuse Retinal Thickening (DRT) Cystoid Macular Edema (CME) Neurosensory Detachment (NSD) Schitic Retinal Thickening (SRT)

10. Macular Hole Confirmation Staging Surgical planning Patient education FTMH LMH VMT What to look for?Why OCT?

11. OCT Staging of macular hole Stage 1B (Full thickness pseudocyst) Stage 2 (Partial opening of pseudooperculum focal Vitreous attachment ) Stage 3 (Operculated FTMH Vitreous traction released) Stage 4 (With complete PVD) Post surgery

12. Surgical prognosis Preoperative macular hole configuration and size determined by OCT showed good correlation with anatomical and functional outcomes after surgery

13. HFF > 0.9 - 100 % PRIMARY CLOSURE HFF = 0.5 - 67 % PRIMARY CLOSURE HFF < 0.5 - Poor closure rates

14. ARMD Diagnosis - Dry or Wet Response to treatment Drusens Lipofusin deposits Bumpy RPE High reflective Normal inner retinal layers No shadowing

15. Types of PED Fibrovascular Serous Hemorrhagic Drusanoid

16. Types of CNVM Occult Classic Intraretinal fluid is associated with the presence of neovascular membrane Disruption of RPE band Irregular thickening below RPE CNVM not adequately visualized Optical shadowing by detached RPE Continuous RPE band Well defined, Hyperreflective fusiform thickening above RPE Marked, posterior shadowing

17. Central Serous Retinopathy RPE defect SRF Cystoid spaces Foveal atrophy/thinning Subretinal fibrin CNVM Compare the reflectivity with vitreous Granular outer segment in chronic cases

18. Parafoveal Telangiectasia Cystic spaces Minimum/ moderate thickening Defect at the level of photoreceptor layer Intraretinal high reflective areas causing shadow (migrated pigments)

19. OCT in ERM and VMT Confirmation Topographic localization Surgical planning R/O coincidental pathology like macular hole /pseudohole
