Abstract


Ophthalmology is one of the most technology-drivenmedical specialties with numerous recent advances due to improvements in imaging technology.Advances in retinal imaging haveallowed for better understanding of theeye in health and disease, retinal pathophysiology, documenting of disease progression,and assessingtherapeutic response.During the last 50 years, both the hardware such as lasers in addition tosoftware image analysis havesignificantly evolved.These improvements have included facilitating the progress of the ocular examination, eliminating the discomfort of patients, and obtaining high quality non-invasive images.This article will review the classic retinal imaging modalities, state-of-the-art retinal imaging technologies, and an introduction of emerging imaging technologies.
