This OCT scan was taken in September, 2010 showing diabetic macular edema, a swelling of the retina caused by leaking blood vessels.
This OCT scan was taken in March 2011. Notice the reduction of swelling and also the significant improvement of the 20/20 spot (blue in center), which resulted in a significant enhancement of the patient’s vision quality.
