Review: Anterior Segment Optical Coherence Tomography

Abstract

The cornea is a clear and transparent layer that covers the front surface of the eye, playing an important role in protecting the eye and allowing light to enter the eye for sight. As the layer that first receives light, the cornea also functions to refract the light so that it reaches the retina with the right focus, which is then translated by the brain into clear vision. Therefore, the health and integrity of the structures of the cornea are very important for the quality of a person's visual functions.
