An apparatus, systems, and methods for a wearable device configured for performing ophthalmic imaging via optical coherence tomography (OCT) are described. The device simultaneously acquires images of both eyes of a subject while the subject is awake and actively engaged in visual content that is displayed within the device. Imaging conducted via the device does not require the implementation of two separate OCT systems for each eye, but rather parallelizes the imaging capability of a single system. The device tracks and registers the positions of the subject's eyes relative to the imaging position, thereby generating widefield images based on the distribution of the eyes'positions. These imaging techniques have application in obtaining medically useful ophthalmic images of subjects for whom it is difficult to cooperate with traditional OCT imaging methods, such as young children or patients with severe physical or cognitive disabilities.
An imaging system for dual site imaging comprising:
A dual site imaging method implemented using (i) a wearable device configured to be worn by a subject, the wearable device comprising a set of imaging components including a light source and a sample arm including one or more lenses and one or more scanning mirrors, and (ii) a computing device communicatively coupled to the wearable device, the computing device comprising at least one processor and at least one memory in communication with the at least one processor, the dual site imaging method comprising:
