Clinical Utility of Optical Coherence Tomography in Glaucoma
Dong ZM; Wollstein G; Schuman JSInvestigative Ophthalmology and Visual Science 2016; 57: OCT556-67
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has established itself as the dominant imaging modality in the management of glaucoma and retinal diseases, providing high-resolution visualization of ocular microstructures and objective quantification of tissue thickness and change. This article reviews the history of OCT imaging with a specific focus on glaucoma. We examine the clinical utility of OCT with respect to diagnosis and progression monitoring, with additional emphasis on advances in OCT technology that continue to facilitate glaucoma research and inform clinical management strategies.
