Summary

Intraoperative real-time optical coherence tomography (OCT) enhances visualization during macular surgery for vitreomacular disorders. While it aids in assessing membrane removal, current systems have limitations for precise surgical guidance.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Surgical Technology
  • Medical Imaging

Background:

  • Spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) is crucial for diagnosing vitreomacular interface disorders.
  • SD-OCT provides high-resolution anatomical views, complementing vitreoretinal surgery.
  • It offers detailed intraoperative insights beyond standard microscopy.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the utility of intraoperative real-time OCT in refining surgical techniques for vitreomacular disorders.
  • To explore the clinical applications of real-time OCT in macular surgery.

Main Methods:

  • A comprehensive literature review was performed.
  • Systematically evaluated in-house data were analyzed.
  • Potential applications of intraoperative real-time OCT were assessed.

Main Results:

  • Real-time OCT visualizes epiretinal membranes and confirms complete removal post-surgery.
  • It provides novel qualitative and quantitative data, aiding surgical decisions.
  • Membrane peeling can be done without dyes in select cases, but precise maneuver guidance is limited.

Conclusions:

  • Intraoperative real-time OCT visualizes surgical effects on retinal microarchitecture.
  • It enhances understanding of vitreomacular disorder pathophysiology and prognosis.
  • Current systems face limitations in providing accurate real-time surgical guidance.
