| Abstract |
The development of spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (OCT) allows for the highest commercially available resolution of in vivo retinal anatomic details to date. The ability to see the macula with ever increasing detail is dramatically improving our understanding of the pathogenesis of retinal disease. However, the only prospective study that partially evaluated spectral-domain OCT versus time-domain OCT failed to show any clinical benefit of increased OCT resolution. Clinical outcomes, eg, best-corrected visual acuity, central macular thickness and number of injections, with "newer" OCT technologies remain an unproven advantage. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 18 October 2013.
All research outputs
#20,655,488
of 25,373,627 outputs
Outputs from Clinical Ophthalmology
#2,605
of 3,712 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#166,050
of 219,840 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Clinical Ophthalmology
#39
of 68 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,373,627 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 10th percentile – i.e., 10% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 3,712 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.9. This one is in the 13th percentile – i.e., 13% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 219,840 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 68 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
