摘要

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a non-contact optical signal acquisition and processing device that provides magnified, high resolution cross-sectional images of ocular tissues. Development of anterior segment OCT (AS-OCT) offers the benefits of fine resolution and noninvasive examination to investigation of anterior segment anatomy to the depth of the iris plane. This imaging device has been utilized for investigation into a myriad of corneal and anterior segment disease. Recent technological advances toward three-dimensional visualization broaden the scope of AS-OCT in ophthalmologic evaluation. The AS-OCT is a valuable imaging tool whose use in research and clinical practice will continue to expand our knowledge and management of various ophthalmic conditions.
