Abstract

Purpose

To evaluate the utility of swept source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT) for the analysis of anterior segment structures in cases with previous traumatic eye injuries.

Observations

We report three eyes of three patients with anterior segment traumatic eye injury and highlight the role of SS-OCT in their evaluation and management. This technology enabled us to visualize the structural details of anterior segment of the eye and augment the clinical examination in our patients. Given that it is non-invasive and that there is no contact involved, it may be an ideal imaging modality for traumatic eye injuries for viewing the details before and after any clinical intervention especially in the sub-acute setting.

Conclusions

The anterior segment SS-OCT is a useful device allowing non-invasive, non-contact, real-time, cross-sectional anterior segment images of eyes with previous ocular trauma.

前段扫源光学相干断层扫描在眼外伤患者成像中的应用

目的探讨扫描源光学相干断层扫描(SS-OCT)在眼外伤前节结构分析中的应用价值。本文报道了3例眼前段外伤性损伤患者的3只眼，并强调了SS-OCT在其评估和治疗中的作用。这项技术使我们能够可视化眼睛前段的结构细节，并增加了患者的临床检查。鉴于它是非侵入性的，并且没有接触，它可能是创伤性眼损伤的理想成像方式，可以在任何临床干预之前和之后查看细节，特别是在亚急性环境中。结论SS-OCT是一种有用的设备，可以对既往眼部外伤患者进行无创、非接触、实时、横断面的眼前段成像。

期刊介绍： The American Journal of Ophthalmology Case Reports is a peer-reviewed, scientific publication that welcomes the submission of original, previously unpublished case report manuscripts directed to ophthalmologists and visual science specialists. The cases shall be challenging and stimulating but shall also be presented in an educational format to engage the readers as if they are working alongside with the caring clinician scientists to manage the patients. Submissions shall be clear, concise, and well-documented reports. Brief reports and case series submissions on specific themes are also very welcome.
