Abstract

Compared with SD-OCT, resolution of the 1 mm retinal B scan of SS-OCT scan biometry was lower. However, advanced pathologic characteristics were clearly discernible. Repeatability and accuracy of CRT measurements were acceptable though lower than with the standard SD-OCT technique. The CRT differed significantly in eyes of particular interest (group I) between both devices. The new scan could provide useful information for subsequent patient examination and further treatment planning for cataract surgery.
