Abstract

Abstract: Optical coherence tomography (OCT), a non-contact, non-invasive high resolution imaging of biological tissue structure technology, can provide morphological image and quantitative analysis. Application of OCT on the corneal refractive surgery is not confined to the corneal thickness measurements, corneal flap assessment and evaluation of the effect of negative pressure on the retina. OCT can also play an important role in keratoconus screening, corneal disease observation and operation design, preoperative screening of the pathological changes in the macular area and postoperative prediction of vision. OCT optimal application is important for the improvement of efficacy in corneal refractive surgery.

Key words: optical coherence tomography, corneal refractive surgery
