This study reviews Berger space (BS), an anatomical region crucial for understanding the vitreo-lenticular junction. Optical coherence tomography successfully visualized the BS in three distinct patient cases, highlighting its clinical relevance.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Anatomy
  • Medical Imaging

Background:

  • Berger space (BS) is anatomically situated between the lens's posterior capsule and the vitreous's anterior hyaloid.
  • This space is delineated by the Wieger ligament and Egger's line, playing a role in ocular anatomy.

Observation:

  • Optical coherence tomography (OCT) was utilized to examine the anterior pole of 90 patients.
  • The BS was successfully visualized in three distinct cases using anterior pole OCT.

Findings:

  • The study presents the first documented cases of Berger space visualization via OCT.
  • Observed cases included one phakic patient and two pseudophakic patients, one with vitreous changes and another with posterior lens capsule opacification.

Implications:

  • Understanding Berger space is vital for comprehending the vitreo-lenticular junction and potential complications during cataract surgery.
  • Knowledge of the BS may also elucidate the etiology of pigment dispersion syndrome.
