Research summary
The Study will examine 300 patients (600 eyes) in a single visit with a further Adaptive Optics imaging taken in 200 of the 300 patients selected. Patients who took the AOSLO imaging assessment will be invited back for further imaging after 6-12 months (at a standard NHS Follow up visit) to probe longitudinal changes. The imaging modalities used in this study will be spectral domain optical coherence topography (SD-OCT), swept source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT), and adaptive optics scanning light ophthalmoscopy (AOSLO).
An examiner will scan the participants study eye(s) on the same day on each of the 3 imaging modalities SD-OCT, SS-OCT and AOSLO. Finally, we will use a questionnaire to explore whether participants preferred one OCT imaging modality over the other (SS-OCT vs SD-OCT).
