DEVICE: SPECTRALIS (04059237000297)

A mobile assembly of devices designed to use near infrared (NIR) LED light aimed into the eye to acquire, process, display and save in vivo depth-resolved images of anterior and posterior ocular tissue microstructures in clinical and perioperative examination through the use of interchangeable lenses. Spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SDOCT) is intended to aid in the diagnosis and evaluation of physiologic and pathologic conditions of the eye through non-contact optical imaging. Reflected light is picked up by a detector that converts it into electrical signals using a computer and dedicated software, providing cross-sectional or three-dimensional (3-D) volume scans for analysis.

An assembly of electrically-powered ophthalmic instruments and digital image capturing/processing devices intended to use a low power laser beam to scan in two dimensions over the retina and detect the reflected (or returned) light to generate and capture digital confocal images of the fundus. It typically consists of a laser, optics, image detection system, a digital processor/computer, application software and image display monitor(s). It is typically used for assessment/control of diabetic retinopathy/maculopathy, age-related macular degeneration (AMD), choroidal neovascularization (CNV), detection of retinal vascular disturbances, and diagnosis of chorioditis.
