Lecture: Interpreting macular OCT
This presentation is intended for eye care practitioners who would like to further their basic and intermediate skills in interpretation of OCT scans of the macular area. It illustrates the indications for scanning as well as the 4 layer approach and 4 skill levels of interpretation.
Learning outcome(s):
Optometrists will describe a systematic approach to OCT analysis, including common patterns of macular abnormalities and co-relate with clinical findings, relative to their scope of practice (s.7)
Optometrists will be able to describe what is needed for each level of OCT scan interpretation, gaining interpretation skills at each level through case-based discussion (s.5)
Dispensing opticians will recognise the need for OCT scanning, and describe a systematic approach to OCT analysis relative to their scope of practice (s.7)
