Optical coherence tomography for the investigation of posterior and anterior eye segments

Abstract

The applications of three-dimensional Fourier domain optical coherence tomography (FD-OCT) to ophthalmology are demonstrated. The fundamentals of two types of FD-OCT, i.e., spectral domain OCT (SD-OCT) and swept source OCT (SS-OCT) are described. The 3D investigation of age-related macular degeneration and keratoconus are presented.
