Abstract

Objectives: Infectious keratitisis one of the leading causes of corneal opacity and blindness, becoming a significant healthcare burden on the world, including in Vietnam. In recent years, Anterior Segment Optical Coherence Tomography (AS-OCT) has been applied as a useful tool in evaluating corneal lesion due to keratitis, providing detailed lesion of corneal that slit-lamp examination has limitations in assessing. Patients and methods: We report three cases of keratitis, all of which underwent AS-OCT imaging. The corneal lesions of each patient were analyzed using AS-OCT images and compared with clinical manifestations. The information obtained from both methods was used to make assessments on the extent of damage and the treatment approach for each case. Results: The AS-OCT images provide a full and detailed description of the corneal lesions in three cases, demonstrating its role in supporting diagnosis and treatment. Conclusions: AS-OCT is an important tool in evaluating corneal damage due to keratitis. The results from AS-OCT imaging can support accurate diagnosis of the cause and extent of damage, while also providing crucial information for the treatment process.
