Spectral domain OCT versus time domain OCT in the evaluation of macular features related to wet age-related macular degeneration

Abstract

The agreement in the evaluation of macular lesions between the two techniques is poor and depends on the lesion considered. SD OCT allows better detection of the alterations typically related to choroidal neovascularization such as IRE, PED, ILM thickening, and HE. Consequently its use should be strongly considered in patients with wet AMD.
