Abstract

Imaging with optical coherence tomography (OCT) has become a mainstay of glaucoma diagnosis and management. In recent years, evidence has accumulated to show that OCT-derived rates of change are associated with progression of glaucoma and reduction of quality of life. OCT technology improves rapidly. Recent innovations such as swept source OCTs enable visualization of the lamina cribrosa. While noninvasive OCT angiography may shed some light into perfusion of the optic nerve head in glaucoma.
