ABSTRACT

Anterior segment optical coherence tomography (ASOCT) is a new type of optical imaging modality that performs high-resolution, faster scanning speed, and cross-sectional imaging of the anterior chamber of the eye. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) was rst described by Huang et al. in 1991 [1]. The rst in vivo ASOCT imaging of the human eye was demonstrated in 1994 [2]; soon the commercially available ASOCT system was reported in 2003. Its important clinical and research applications, such as anterior chamber angle evaluation, ltering bleb imaging, and corneal pachymetry, have made the largest clinical and research impact in ophthalmology.
