Development and application of ultra-wide-field fundus imaging

Journal Title: Eye Science (Yanke Xuebao) - Year 2022, Vol 37, Issue 7

Abstract

Retinal diseases primarily feature with peripheral retinopathy, and its early diagnosis as well as the later following up both play a vital role in the treatment and prevention of retinal diseases. In the past, traditional fundus imaging technology can only provide the visual range of 20 degrees. Even if montage photography technology is used, it can only partially reveal the fundus field. At present, fundus imaging technology has entered the latest era of ultra-wide-field, which provides at least 200-degree fundus field of vision. Ultra-wide-field fundus photochromy, fluorescein angiography, optical coherence tomography and angiography based on this technology have been widely used in clinical practice, and play an important role in the diagnosis and evaluation of retinal diseases, such as diabetes retinopathy, retinal vein occlusion, retinopathy of prematurity, retinitis pigmentosa and retinal detachment. This article aims to review the occurrence and development of ultra-wide-field fundus imaging technology and its clinical applications up to now to provide a relative guideline for clinic and research.
