Streszczenie

Abstract: The methods of imaging posterior segment of the eye are still improving. Conventional colour fundus imaging, fluorescein angiography (FA) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) have become routine in clinical practice to examine retinal diseases. This review presents the results of using adaptive optics (AO) to assess microvascular changes and cone parameters in retinal and systemic diseases.
In the future, adaptive optics technology might be used as a non-invasive method in clinical practice not only in retinal diseases but also in diabetology and hypertensiology.
