Updated: Oct 9, 2022
-This technique uses the slit lamp to create 2 visible lines to come together at the Schwalbe's Line, making the line easy to identify.
-This helps in identifying the other structures easily and also helpful in a patient with no trabecular pigmentation.
-A narrow slit beam is used.
