Abstract

The optical coherence tomography is a modern method to assist the ophthalmologist examine the eye fundus. Tomographs have a very high resolution and give the ophthalmologist a in real-time mode in vivo a detailed examination of retinal, optic nerve and choroidal structures. A continual improvement of this technique offers great opportunities and is not only of scientific but also of practical interest.
