Abstract:

Coherent optical tomography (OCT) is a new non-invasive imaging diagnostic technology developed in the early 1990s. It has the characteristics of non-contact, non-invasive, and high-resolution, and has played its unique advantages in the diagnosis of many ophthalmic diseases. In recent years, with the increase of the incidence rate of myopia and the development of refractive surgery technology, more and more people choose corneal refractive surgery to correct their vision, so as to remove glasses and improve their beauty. However, patients with concomitant keratoconus, glaucoma, dry eye, and some fundus diseases are not suitable for corneal refractive surgery. Therefore, it is particularly important to screen and detect these diseases before surgery. The application of OCT in preoperative screening and evaluation of common and unsuitable diseases for corneal refractive surgery were reviewed in this paper, emphasizing the advantages of this examination technique in clinical application, in order to avoid various postoperative complications and improve the safety of corneal refractive surgery.

Key words: Optical coherence tomography, Corneal refractive surgery, Keratoconus
