Hello, my name is ***********. I had the OCT 3-D scan as part of my routine eye test, and it picked up my glaucoma.
The tests for glaucoma with the standard NHS eye test did not detect any problems, and I was shocked to find out that 40% of damage has to be done till glaucoma is detected with the NHS eye test!
I am so glad I had it done, I am receiving treatment for my glaucoma now and without that scan my retina would have continued to deteriorate for another year till I saw my Optician again. But now that my Optician has picked it up early, the damage will stop.
I would recommed OCT to everyone, it saved my sight.
