Abstract: This talk will focus on recent progress in tomographic imaging of the retina. Using the phase of the scattered light, which is the essence of holography, new avenues were opened for retinal imaging. Non-invasively and without contact retinal function can be imaged, offering new options for ophthalmic diagnosis and making the eye a window to the brain and vascular system.
