Abstract

The performance of clinical confocal SLO and OCT imagers is limited by ocular aberrations. Adaptive optics (AO) addresses this problem, but most research systems are large, complex, and less well suited to the clinical environment. PSI's recently developed compact retinal imager is designed for rapid, automated generation of cone photoreceptor density maps. The device has a compact foot-print suitable for clinical deployment. The system previously presented at Photonics West and ARVO 2013 has been upgraded to include numerous new features that support clinical research applications. These upgrades significantly enhance the capabilities of the imager, providing the clinician with simultaneously-acquired (registered) en face photoreceptor images and AO-OCT retinal cross-sections.
