Abstract
The detailed cross-sectional images of OCT can be used for diagnosis and follow-up, assessing therapeutic success or failure. Recently, the OCT technology has been implemented in a small unit compatible with existing slit lamps. This increases the efficiency of the routine clinical examination of a patient, will increase the comfort of the patient, and saves time. Additionally, the posterior segment can be scanned through a handheld lens and even through a three-mirror lens.
