What is Specular Microscopy?
Specular microscopy is a non-invasive diagnostic technique used primarily in ophthalmology to image and analyze the corneal endothelium. It provides detailed images of the morphology, density, and size of endothelial cells, which are critical for maintaining corneal transparency. It is commonly used to assess corneal health before and after refractive surgery, monitor corneal diseases like Fuchs' dystrophy, and evaluate corneal grafts.
What other technologies are related to Specular Microscopy?
Specular Microscopy Complementary Technologies
Pachymetry
Pachymetry measures corneal thickness, which can be helpful in conjunction with specular microscopy in assessing corneal health.
Corneal Topography
Corneal topography maps the curvature of the cornea. While specular microscopy focuses on the endothelium, corneal topography provides complementary information about the overall corneal shape and health, aiding in comprehensive corneal assessment.
OCT
Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) provides cross-sectional images of the cornea and anterior segment, including the endothelium. While specular microscopy specifically images the endothelial cells, OCT gives a broader view of corneal structure and can be used in conjunction with specular microscopy for a more complete assessment.
