Abstract
Background : Ophthalmology is the most technologydriven specialty among all the medical specialties. Advances in retinal imaging have proven fundamental to many paradigm shifts in our understanding and treatment of ocular disease. Methods : Literature review. Discussion : This article provides an overview of current, state-of-the-art retinal imaging technologies, as well as highlights many emerging imaging technologies that we believe are likely to transform the provision of eye care. Conclusions : The second decade of the 21st century is an exciting time to be an ophthalmologist, and especially a retinal specialist. However, studies of diagnostic accuracy are more prone to bias than many other forms of clinical research. With the likely imminent proliferation of ocular imaging techniques, standardized and robust methods for their clinical validation will be essential, with reporting of results according to standards for reporting of diagnostic accuracy recommendations.
