This short textbook was written for someone who newly start studying, doing research, or development about optical coherence tomography (OCT) or using OCT. The first chapter summarizes the concept and the history of OCT. In the second chapter, the technologies of OCT are summarized, which includes the mathematical principle, hardware implementation, the instructions for designs such as interferometer and wavelength selections, and theories of resolutions and sensitivity. In the third chapter, some examples of ophthalmic applications of OCT are described. In the last chapter, instructions for next learning steps are given.
