Eye Angiography
Eye angiography is a technique for examining the vascular structure in the retina and choroid layers located behind the eye.
Angiographic imaging of the eye helps diagnose diabetes, eye tumors, night blindness, and retinal disorders.
Why is Eye Angiography Done?
- Visualization of eye vessels in eye angiography
- Investigation of any mass in the eye
- Determination of leaks in eye vessels
- Examination of bleeding areas in the eye vessels
- Determination of blockages in eye vessels
- Examination of eye inflammation
- Determining the laser treatment for retinal retina and determination of the regions where laser treatment will be applied
- Confirming the effectiveness of the laser or other treatment
- Detection and treatment of age-related macular degeneration
How is eye angioma made?
Eye angiography is used to stain the veins on the back of the eye with special paint, to see the unseen problems, to make a diagnosis, to decide the treatment and to monitor the effects of the treatment. At the beginning of the procedure, pupils are dilated with drops and a special drug is given to the veins from the arm. After the drug reaches the eye in the circulation, the veins in the eye are seen more clearly. In the meantime, intraocular photographs are taken with a special microscope and light. With these photos, the patient is diagnosed. Lasting approximately half an hour, the application does not harm the eyes.
