Applications of Anterior Segment Optical Coherence Tomography in Cornea and Ocular Surface Diseases

الملخص EN

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a noncontact technology that produces high-resolution cross-sectional images of ocular tissues.

Anterior segment OCT (AS-OCT) enables the precise visualization of anterior segment structure; thus, it can be used in various corneal and ocular surface disorders.

In this review, the authors will discuss the application of AS-OCT for diagnosis and management of various corneal and ocular surface disorders.

Use of AS-OCT for anterior segment surgery and postoperative management will also be discussed.

In addition, application of the device for research using human data and animal models will be introduced.
