Pioneering evaluation in Brazil of microscope-integrated optical coherence tomography with a three-dimensional digital visualization system during pars plana vitrectomy for the treatment of macular hole
This study suggests that the use of iOCT integrated with a digital viewing microscope for the treatment of macular holes offers high standard usability and effectiveness for visualizing structures, and impact favorably on decision-making process during pars-plana vitrectomy. These findings suggest that in the near future, expanded use of iOCT could significantly improve tissue management at the vitreomacular interface and improve anatomical and functional results.
