    While eye care providers are thoroughly familiar with the use of optical coherence tomography (OCT) in the diagnosis and management of glaucoma and retinal diseases, many are not as familiar with its myriad uses for the diagnosis of corneal and anterior segment conditions. Anterior segment OCT (AS-OCT) can help to differentiate between various corneal pathologies, show the anatomy of the angles, obtain information about the lens-capsule complex, and guide contact lens fitting, among many other clinical uses. Clinical Atlas of Anterior Segment OCT expertly guides clinicians through all aspects of AS-OCT with hundreds of high-quality OCT images that highlight the utility of AS-OCT in diagnosing and managing a wide spectrum of anterior segment diseases.
