Spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) during macular surgery provides real-time insights into retinal anatomy, aiding in complication detection and surgical planning for better visual outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Surgical Innovation
  • Retinal Imaging

Background:

  • Intraoperative spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) offers potential for enhanced macular surgery.
  • This technology may improve prediction of visual outcomes and identification of intraoperative anatomical changes.

Observation:

  • A retrospective case study analyzed 5 eyes undergoing macular surgery for holes and epiretinal membranes (ERMs).
  • Spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) scans were acquired at multiple intraoperative stages.

Findings:

  • Intraoperative SD-OCT revealed subretinal hyporeflectivity and retinal detachment in 3 of 5 patients.
  • SD-OCT facilitated identification of cleavage planes for internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling in 2 patients.
  • The technology detected previously unnoticed intraoperative complications in 2 cases, allowing immediate surgical modification.
