Long-Working Distance OCT System With Fixation Alignment for Pediatric Imaging

Young children age 6 month to 6 years are often not able to cooperate for advanced OCT eye
imaging. The purpose of this study is to investigate the use of a novel long-working distance
swept source (SS) optical coherence tomography imaging system with fixation alignment for use
first in young adults, older children, and then young children ages 6 months to 6 years. The
investigator's future goal is to obtain important retinal and optic nerve information from
OCT in clinic in these young children.

The overall objective of this study is to examine the utility of a long-working distance high
speed SSOCT system along with technology to identify and use movies, etc. to aid with
fixation. This study would be the first testing of such a system, first in adults and then
moving to older children who could provide feedback, and then to young children.

This imaging data will be compared to other clinical tests and images collected during
regular health care and eye examinations.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Minor or adult undergoing eye examination at Duke Eye Center

- Adults with normal eye health enrolled as controls

Exclusion Criteria:

- Have any ocular disease that restricts the ability to perform OCT scanning

- Minor under the age of 6 months
