Auto Fluorescence (FAF)
Fundus Auto Fluorescence (FAF) is a non-invasive technique to acquire images of the retina without injection, that visualizes the auto-fluorescence of lipofuscin distribution contained on the Retinal Pigment Epithelium (RPE)., Lipofuscin, is a byproduct of cell metabolism. With age, lipofuscin accumulates in many types of cells throughout the body and it has been associated with several eye diseases.
FAF is becoming increasingly important in the diagnosis of retinal pathology and is nowadays one of essential tools for observing and diagnosing exudative Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD), Geographic Atorophy (GA) and addressing Retinal pigment Epithelium (RPE) functionality. TOPCON is the only company licensed by Dr. Richard Spaide for the use of his co-developped FAF filters. Dr. Spaide's filters are optimized for the observation of lipofucin deposits in the retina and require 40% less illumination than conventional FAF filters. Additionally the optimized wavelength of those filters do not stimulate fluorescein or ICG so images can be taken during or post angiography
