title: [Optical coherence tomography in diagnosis of retinal diseases in children and adolescents].
abstract: This report describes the new optical technique of optical coherence tomography (OCT) for imaging eye fundus. OCT is noninvasive, capable of high-resolution of 10 to 17 microns imaging of biological tissue. It has been used, to investigate several ocular diseases in children and adolescents. These include macular disease, glaucoma, optic nerve disorders, and myopia.
