Abstract:
Newer retinal imaging technologies help us in understanding the pathogenesis of many retinal pathologies,such as diabetic retinopathy,age related macular degeneration,glaucoma and uveitis.Early detection of these retinal diseases can prevent the onset of progressive vision loss,and aid in the development of new treatment options.Retinal functional imager (RFI) is an unique and noninvasive functional imaging system.Unlike most of the available newer retinal imaging tools,the RFI not only shows retinal structural changes,but can directly monitor functional changes and measure hemodynamic parameters,such as retinal bloodflow velocity,oximetric state,etc.This article reviews the utility progress of RFI in various retinal diseases.
