Is oblique scanning laser ophthalmoscope applicable to human ocular optics? A feasibility study using an eye model for volumetric imaging.


ABSTRACT: Oblique scanning laser ophthalmoscopy (oSLO) is a novel imaging modality to provide volumetric retinal imaging without depth sectioning over a large field of view (FOV). It has been successfully demonstrated in vivo in rodent eyes for volumetric fluorescein angiography (vFA). However, engineering oSLO for human retinal imaging is challenging because of the low numerical aperture (NA) of human ocular optics. To overcome this challenge, we implement optical designs to (a) increase the angle of the intermediate image under Scheimpflug condition, and (b) expand the magnification in the depth dimension with cylindrical lens to enable sufficient sampling density. In addition, we adopt a scanning-and-descaning strategy, resulting in a compact oSLO system. We experimentally show that the current setup can achieve a FOV of ~3?×?6?×?0.8?mm3 , and the transverse and axial resolutions of 7 and 41??m, respectively. This feasibility study serves an important step for future in vivo human retinal imaging.
