Example text
The thumb is then used to lightly hold the lashes of the everted lid against the upper orbital rim (resting the hand against the brow support and/or the patient’s head). All other operations must therefore be conducted using the other (free) hand. A diffuse beam is directed to the tarsal conjunctiva, which is observed at low and then medium magnification. Fluorescein is instilled if it has not already been added to the eye as part of the preceding examination, and excitation and barrier filters are interposed in the illumination and observation systems, respectively.
Volume mode allows automatic acquisition of up to 30 images, 2 µm apart, in the z-axis. Thus, a section of cornea 60 µm in depth can be scanned in this way. A series of 100 images can be acquired at a selected rate of between 1 and 30 frames per second in sequence mode. During image acquisition, the objective lens either may remain stationary or be manually scanned in the x, y and z axes. The result is a movie of between 3 and 100 sec. duration. The normal cornea as viewed with the confocal microscope A number of qualitative and quantitative studies have been undertaken documenting the appearance of the normal cornea as viewed with the confocal microscope.
17). 17 Diagrammatic representation of the optical principles of confocal microscopy. White or laser light that passes through the first pinhole is focused on the focal plane in the cornea by the condensing lens. Returning light is diverted through the objective lens and a conjugate exit pinhole and reaches the observer or camera. Scattered out of focus light from below or above the focal plane (broken lines) is greatly limited by the pinholes and does not reach the observation system. 8) The high axial (or depth) resolution is responsible for the confocal microscope being described as an instrument that is capable of ‘optically sectioning’ the cornea.
