Researcher from Hind Institute of Medical Sciences Publishes New Studies and Findings in the Area of Corneal Ulcer (Comparison of corneal ulcer size and depth measurement by slit lamp and anterior segment optical coherence tomography).

A recent study conducted at the Hind Institute of Medical Sciences in Uttar Pradesh, India, compared the measurement of corneal ulcer size and depth using slit lamp biomicroscopy and anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT). The study found that AS-OCT provided accurate and non-invasive measurements of corneal ulcer depth, which is not possible with slit lamp biomicroscopy. The use of AS-OCT as an adjunctive modality can enhance the diagnosis and management of corneal ulcers, providing valuable imaging guidelines for clinicians. This research highlights the utility of AS-OCT in monitoring disease activity. [Extracted from the article]
