Abstract

The recent appearance in the market of a new technology applied to the anterior segment has opened the way to coherent light tomographs. The SL-OCT (slit-lamp optical coherence tomography) is a coherent light tomograph adapted to a conventional slit lamp, produced by Heidelberg Engineering, Germany. The Visante is another version of this instrument by Zeiss, with which we have not had any experience yet.
