Abstract:AIM: To evaluate application value of anterior segment optical coherence tomography(AS-OCT)in the treatment of the postcataract descemet membrane detachment(DMD).
METHODS: Twenty-seven cases(32 eyes)with postcataract corneal edema were examined by AS-OCT. Corresponding way was taken after indentifing the reason. One case with severe DMD were processed with operative reduction.
RESULTS: All the eyes with DMD were judged and treated in time. The cornea with severe DMD were lightened evidently after surgery and transparent completely.
CONCLUSION: It is an effective method for using AS-OCT to judge DMD.
