While eye care providers are thoroughly familiar with the use of optical coherence tomography (OCT) in the diagnosis and management of glaucoma and retinal diseases, many are not as familiar with its myriad uses for the diagnosis of corneal and anterior segment conditions. Anterior segment OCT (AS-OCT) can help to differentiate between various corneal pathologies, show the anatomy of the angles, obtain information about the lens-capsule complex, and guide contact lens fitting, among many other clinical uses. Clinical Atlas of Anterior Segment OCT expertly guides clinicians through all aspects of AS-OCT with hundreds of high-quality OCT images that highlight the utility of AS-OCT in diagnosing and managing a wide spectrum of anterior segment diseases.

Key Features

Covers the entire normal anatomy of the anterior segment and pathology of the conjunctiva, corneal epithelium, stroma and endothelium, lens, iris, anatomic angle, and clinical settings such as trauma, infection, inflammation, and contact lens fitting
Includes information on using AS-OCT in clinical and surgical settings (intraoperative AS-OCT)
Provides rich visual guidance with over 500+ high-quality figures (anterior segment OCT imaging and clinical photos) comparing normal anatomy and a wide range of pathology, including both common and rare disorders and how to differentiate frequently confused conditions
Provides a well-rounded perspective of AS-OCT, including how to use, understand, and capture images
Links high-quality slit lamp images to the corresponding AS-OCT image with clear labels to show the pathology side by side
Features clinical pearls in each chapter to relate key AS-OCT and clinical findings to everyday practice
An eBook version is included with purchase. The eBook allows you to access all of the text, figures, and references, with the ability to search, customize your content, make notes and highlights, and have content read aloud

Title Reviews

"...a comprehensive guide to the diagnostic and clinical utility of anterior segment OCT (AS-OCT). With its rich repository of high-quality images and detailed commentary, this atlas serves as an invaluable resource for ECPs at all levels. The book stands out for its exclusive focus on this non-invasive imaging modality, which is crucial for diagnosing and managing corneal, iris, angle and lens abnormalities.... The inclusion of clinical pearls in every section underscores the authors’ intent to make this atlas not just informative but also practically useful. The vibrant layout and thoughtful design enhance the reading experience – with bold, colour-coded contents reflecting the practical nature of the book – making it visually appealing and easy to navigate.... an essential resource for ECPs and ophthalmic technicians. It not only expands knowledge but also deepens appreciation for the diagnostic power of AS-OCT and fills a critical void in ophthalmic literature,... this book will undoubtedly become a trusted companion." — Vicky Wang, Optometrist, Health NZ Te Whatu Ora Auckland, NZ Optics, 2025
