visual impairment in the elderly and the most common cause of registered
blindness in the developed world.
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a noninvasive imaging
technique that provides high-resolution, cross-sectional images of the
retina, retinal nerve fiber layer and the optic nerve head.
Fundus autofluorescence (FAF) imaging is a noninvasive technique
that can acquire a topographic map of the lipofuscin distribution in the
retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells.
