Description
Thomas Desmettre and co-authors test a new eye imaging mode for spotting pigment shifts in a 2025 study. Pigment movement in the retina marks worsening of age-related macular disease, a top cause of sight loss in older adults. Standard photos can miss early shifts, above all when the eye is cloudy.
The ring aperture mode was checked against a layered scan taken as the truth. It caught nearly all true cases and rarely cried wolf. It found shifts that color photos and glow scans missed, and in a few eyes it flagged spread months before other scans did. Clinics gain a fast extra view.
