BMJ Case Rep Published online: [please include Day Month Year] doi:10.1136/bcr-2016217023 DESCRIPTION A 77-year-old woman underwent pars plana vitrectomy for recurrent retinal detachment with silicone oil injection 10 years before presentation. Also the patient was placed on antiglaucoma medications. The patient had a history of recurrent corneal ulcerations in both eyes du...

Intraoperative optical coherence tomography (iOCT) is a noninvasive imaging modality that provides a real-time dynamic feedback of the various surgical steps. Comprehensive literature search was performed in MEDLINE using "intraoperative optical coherence tomography" and "iOCT" as keywords. The use of iOCT as an aid to decision-making has been successfully reported in cases undergoing keratopla...

The authors report anterior segment optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging findings in a case of central toxic keratopathy following laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) surgery for low hyperopia. OCT imaging 1 month after surgery demonstrates that the flap thickness is maintained and the location of stromal tissue loss is just posterior to the flap in the stromal bed in the affected area. ...

Anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) was recently developed and has become a crucial tool in clinical practice. AS-OCT is a noncontact imaging device that provides the detailed structure of the anterior part of the eyes. In this review, the author will discuss the various clinical applications of AS-OCT, such as the normal findings, tear meniscus measurement, ocular surface di...

PURPOSE To show the utility of optical coherence tomography (OCT) for studying the anterior segment and to explain its potential advantages as compared to ultrasonic biomicroscopy (UBM). MATERIALS AND METHODS We have described the findings in 5 patients with different pathologies of the anterior segment, all of whom were studied with UBM and OCT-3 adjusted for the anterior segment. There were...

Purpose. Application of anterior segment optical coherence (AS-OCT) in pediatric ophthalmology. Methods. Retrospective clinical study case series of 26 eyes of 19 pediatric patients throughout a 21-month period, presenting anterior segment pathologies, were submitted to AS-OCT examination (OCT Visante, 1310 nm, Zeiss), noncontact technique, no sedation requirement. Results. AS-OCT images were o...
