Circular polarizers enhance visibility of endothelium in specular reflection biomicroscopy
E. Peli
A simple and inexpensive technique for enhancing the visibility of corneal
endothelial cells in specular reflection biomicroscopy involves the
insertion of a circular polarizer in front of the patient's eye,
intersecting both the incident and reflected light beams. This filter
significantly reduces the glare from the epithelium and enables more
comfortable and clearer viewing of the endothelial cells.
