Clarity Medical Systems has received two patents for Holos IntraOp, an intraoperative aberrometer capture and display system that continuously streams real-time refractive wavefront measurements during cataract surgery. The technology overlays this refractive data onto a live image of the patient’s eye.

Optical coherence tomography helps in the follow-up process of glaucoma as well as the diagnosis of other related diseases, according to a presenter.

Launched aboard a rocket on June 5, a Spectralis optical coherence tomography imaging device is scheduled to arrive on June 15 at the International Space Station to allow for detailed analyses of the backs of crew members’ eyes, according to a news release.

Anterior chamber inflammation can occur after cataract surgery. Slit lamp biomicroscopy has been the conventional method of visualizing the aqueous, but this method is limited because it is subjective. In addition, it is difficult to grade the severity of anterior chamber reaction in corneal edema or opacification. Lowder and associates were the first to visualize the anterior chamber reaction by optical coherence tomography. We were the first to do anterior chamber cell grading in uveitis using time-domain OCT.
