OCT-A

What is OCT‑A by Visionix

OCT‑A stands for Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography — an advanced, non‑invasive eye imaging technology that goes beyond standard OCT by allowing doctors to visualize blood vessels inside the retina and choroid with high resolution, in three dimensions.

Why it matters for patients

• Detailed vascular imaging without dye Traditional angiography required patients to receive a dye injection and undergo more involved protocols. OCT‑A removes that need — meaning no IV, no dye-related risks, and a much simpler, quicker test.

• Early detection of retinal & vascular disease By visualizing capillaries, veins, and arteries in detail, OCT‑A can identify early signs of conditions such as diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, glaucoma‑related vascular changes, and other retinal vascular diseases — often before symptoms appear.

• Comprehensive eye health evaluation — from front to back The system captures high‑resolution images of the retina, optic nerve, anterior segment (cornea, lens, chamber), and ocular vasculature — giving practitioners a full picture of eye health, not just structural but vascular and functional too.
  
  

What we offer at Cincinnati Vision Group

At Cincinnati Vision Group, our team uses OCT‑A technology to go beyond traditional eye exams. With OCT‑A, we can:

• Screen patients at risk for diabetic retinopathy, age‑related macular degeneration (AMD), glaucoma, and other vascular eye conditions.

• Monitor disease progression or response to treatment over time — allowing for earlier intervention if changes are detected.

• Provide a full-eye health assessment, combining structural OCT and angiographic imaging in one visit.

Because OCT-A is non-invasive and fast, it is ideal for routine screening as well as detailed diagnostic follow-up
