An Overview of OCT Interpretation for Primary Care Optometry Part 2

It explores key principles of image analysis, including localisation of abnormalities, assessment of reflectivity, and evaluation of RPE integrity to support differential diagnosis. The article also covers the interpretation of OCT in specific contexts, including macular disease, optic nerve assessment and anterior segment imaging. This is part two of a two-part series.
