Summary edit

Description

I have the start of glaucoma in my right eye, and recently got it tested in some detail. One of the tests was Optical coherence tomography of my retina. I was quite interested, since I am an engineer and have been studying neuroscience a bit. I have a great care provider, Dr. Chen, who took lots of time to test me and then answer my many questions.

The color plot is a look "through" the retina, where you can see some of the layers, I'd like to learn more about this (and I will). I have to say I was sort of amazed at this wonderful medical technolgy and the software that lets you visualize what is going on in the retina.
