Intraoperative imaging of retained perfluorocarbon liquid using spectral domain optical coherence tomography

Conclusion: Droplets of PFCL over the retina result in imaging artifact, most likely due to a lensing effect caused by differences in refractive index between the PFCL and vitreous humor. Although the utility of hand-held spectral domain optical coherence tomography for infants has previously been established, this case presents further application of spectral domain optical coherence tomography in adults when imaging in the supine position is required.
