From Ocular Biometry to Cellular Resolution – and Multifunctional OCT – Coherence Ranging and Imaging in the Human Eye over 35 Years Abstract In the mid 1980s, first applications of low coherence interferometry (LCI) to tissue metrology and analysis were reported. Starting from one-dimensional ocular biometry, the technology has evolved into a high-speed, 3-dimensional imaging […]
