Interventions

  • Adaptive optics imaging — DEVICE
    Adaptive optics scanning laser ophthalmoscopy (AOSLO) and adaptive optics - optical coherence tomography (AO-OCT) retinal imaging

Study Details

The objective of the study is to collect adaptive optics (AO) retinal images from human subjects with outer retinal diseases (diseases of the outer retina including photoreceptor, retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), basement membrane or choroidal pathologies) to develop new diagnostic methods, biomarkers, and clinical endpoints.

Enrollment
100 participants (estimated)

Arms

  • Arm: Outer retinal disease
    Subjects with outer retinal disease affecting the photoreceptor-retinal pigment epithelium complex will be classified by clinical exam by an experienced retina specialist. Outer retinal disease subjects will undergo adaptive optics (AO) imaging of several macular locations.
  • Arm: Healthy control
    Age-matched healthy control subjects will undergo the same AO imaging procedures as subjects with outer retinal diseases.

Primary Outcome Measure

Photoreceptor (PR) density [ Time Frame: PR density will be calculated once at the AO imaging session in which PRs are the target. ]
