US 12,551,102 B2 · Systems and methods for peripheral retinal optical coherence tomography

Abstract

Peripheral retinal OCT can be used to generate peripheral retinal OCT images allowing for the peripheral retina to be viewed. A peripheral retinal vision system can determine that a set of fiducial markers is in a field-of-view of at least one camera and record positional data comprising a contact lens position and angle with respect to an OCT imaging system having OCT scanning mirrors in a first position. The system can determine whether a retinal layer is in an OCT scan captured while the set of fiducial markers is in the field-of-view of the at least one camera and the OCT scanning minors are in the first position; and for an OCT scan having he retinal layer and being captured while the set of fiducial markers is in the field-of-view of the at least one camera and the OCT scanning minors are in the first position, store that OCT scan.

Dependent claims

A peripheral retinal optical coherence tomography (OCT) system for imaging an eye of a subject, comprising:

an OCT imaging device;
a rotatable contact lens for placing on the eye comprising one or more angled contact lens mirrors;
and
an orientation system for determining orientation data comprising a three-dimensional position of the rotatable contact lens and a three-dimensional rotation of the rotatable contact lens with respect to the OCT imaging device, the orientation system configured to be in communication with the OCT imaging device;
wherein the peripheral retinal OCT system is configured to allow the OCT imaging device to visualize an internal periphery of the eye.
