Error in Figures
Arch Ophthalmol. 1998;116:77.
Due to errors in cropping of figures during processing for publication in the article titled "A Comparison of Retinal Morphology Viewed by Optical Coherence Tomography and by Light Microscopy," in the November issue of the ARCHIVES (Arch Ophthalmol. 1997;115:1425-1428), the upper portion of the top image in Figure 1 is missing and the left and right parts of Figure 2 are incorrectly matched. Figure 1 and Figure 2 are reprinted correctly here. The Journal regrets the errors.

Figure 1. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) of a section of retina (top) and its corresponding histologic section stained with methylene blue (bottom). Note the laser lesion (created with an estimated retinal spot size of 200 µm) visible in both images (between solid arrowheads). The laser lesion images were aligned for the comparison of adjacent retinal layers as seen in Figure 2. The 250-µm scale bar holds for both the x- and y-coordinates of the OCT image. The open arrows indicate the broad layer of relative low reflectivity corresponding to the photoreceptor nuclei and inner and outer segments.

Figure 2. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) of the macula (left) and its corresponding histologic section stained with methylene blue (right). An outline of the retinal layers from the corresponding light micrograph is superimposed over the OCT image. Note the coalescence of layers entering the fovea. The open arrows indicate the broad layer of relative low reflectivity that corresponds to the nuclear layer and the inner and outer segments of the photoreceptors. This layer widens in the fovea.
