About this trial

The goal of this pilot study is to compare image quality between the investigational devices (R1 and HighRes OCT) and the SPECTRALIS (cleared) in adult participants with normal and/or pathology eyes.

Participants will be imaged with different imaging modalities and scan protocols on all study devices.

Eligibility criteria

This trial accepts healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

All Able and willing to undergo the test procedures, give consent, and to follow instructions.

Age-related macular degeneration Subjects with a diagnosis of AMD as determined by the investigator, either early-intermediate, atrophic, or neovascular

Diabetic retinopathy Subjects with a diagnosis of diabetic retinopathy as determined by the investigator

Disqualifiers

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

cSLO Image quality grading

Good: Good focus, even illumination, optimal exposure Average: The image is of sub-optimal quality, where there are issues with focus, illumination, or exposure, but the image still allows assessment of clinically relevant content Poor: Clinically relevant features are not visible, images are not clinically useful

Time frame
6 months after image acquisition
2

Visability of key anatomical structures

Visibility of OCT image: 1. Difference in reflectivity between the outer retino-choroidal complex and vitreous 2. The vitreo-retinal interface 3. Difference in reflectivity between retinal nerve fiber layer and vitreous 4. Difference in reflectivity between plexiform layer and vitreous 5. Multiple layers within the outer retino-choroidal complex 6. The ganglion cell layer 7. Difference in reflectivity between outer nuclear layer and vitreous 8. External limiting membrane 9. Choroidal/scleral interface OCTA image: 1. Foveal avascular zone 2. Large vessels: 1st order vasculature, if applicable 3. Medium vessels: 2nd and 3rd order vasculature 4. Small vessels: between 3rd order vasculature and end capillaries 5. End capillaries

Time frame
6 months after image acquisition
