Systems and methods for ophthalmic surgical microscope mounted optical coherence tomography

Systems and methods for ophthalmic surgical microscope mounted optical coherence tomography

Value Proposition Surgical visualization has changed drastically since its inception, incorporating larger, more advanced optics toward increasing illumination and field-of-view (FOV). However, the limiting factor in vitreoretinal surgery remains the ability to distinguish between tissues…
