Abstract:
This article reviews literature on the use of intraoperative optical coherence tomography (iOCT) in vitreoretinal surgery, describes the historical aspects of the development of this technology from portable devices to optical coherence tomographs integrated into the surgical microscope, considers the advantages, limitations and disadvantages of this technology, which are now becoming obvious due to the accumulated experience. The review also explores the prospects for the development of iOCT and possible ways to solve its problems. In addition, the review presents and systematizes clinical findings that can be revealed with iOCT in such diseases as rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, complications of proliferative diabetic retinopathy, macular pathology, etc.
