Digital Fundus Fluorescein Angiography (FFA) is a specialized imaging technique that allows for detailed visualization of the blood vessels in the retina. This procedure is essential for diagnosing and monitoring various retinal conditions, including diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, and retinal vascular occlusions.
During the procedure, a fluorescent dye is injected into a vein in your arm. As the dye travels through your bloodstream, a series of high-resolution images are captured of the retina, highlighting any abnormalities in blood flow or leakage from blood vessels.
This advanced imaging technique provides critical information that can significantly influence treatment decisions. The clarity and detail of digital images allow our specialists to detect issues at an early stage, leading to timely and effective interventions.
FFA is recommended for patients with known or suspected retinal diseases, especially those with risk factors such as diabetes or hypertension. Regular screening through this method can help monitor disease progression and assess the effectiveness of ongoing treatment.
At DRS Northex Eye Institute, we prioritize your comfort and safety during the procedure. Our experienced team will guide you through every step, ensuring you feel at ease. If you have any concerns or questions, please don’t hesitate to ask.
If you or a loved one is at risk for retinal conditions, we encourage you to book a consultation. Early detection and monitoring can make a significant difference in maintaining your vision health.
