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

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

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. I...
