Intraoperative optical coherence tomography-guided scleral suture passage while performing surgery on extraocular muscles

Sir, Microscope-integrated intraoperative optical coherence tomography (iOCT, 2 mm depth penetration) helps in achieving the optimal results by providing the real-time images of tissue manipulation during the surgery. The iOCT is of great value while performing lamellar corneal surgeries, cataract surgeries, and intraocular lens implantation surgery. [1] , [2] It has also been noted to provide an advantage during placement of the glaucoma drainage devices in cadaveric eyes and needling of the blebs. [3] , [4] Pasricha et al . described the four-dimensional visualizations of the muscle and the scleral wound while passing the scleral sutures. [5] A 45-year-old male patient with alternate ...
