title: [Clinical application of Scheimpflug photography in the anterior segment].
abstract: Scheimpflug photography gives increased depth of field, enabling a sharp optical section through the whole anterior segment of the eye to be obtained without leaving any structures out of focus. With the Topcon SL-45 the Scheimpflug optical section can be reproduced exactly. It is the method of choice for observing lens opacities. In addition, Scheimpflug photography offers an improved method of monitoring natural courses and/or the effects of treatment in, e.g., keratoconus, lenticonus, aphakia and pseudophakia.
