    I thought this article was very good and is an excellent overview of the flexibility and use of an OCT in practice. However, I think there was an error in figure 9 - the scan depicting advanced glaucoma looks like a poor quality scan, with poor alignment on the nerve head, rather than an image of thinning RNFL secondary to glaucoma (which may also co-exist).

    You are right. The following correction will appear in the March 9 edition of OT: In the CET feature on posterior segment OCT (OT, February 10), OT would like to clarify that the right panel of Figure 9 shows an artefact defect akin to advanced glaucoma. The authors and OT acknowledge that the alignment is not correct, as shown in the image, for this to be a true glaucoma defect; for illustration purposes the defect was induced by misalignment of the RNFL layer during the scan. OT apologises for any confusion caused.
