Feasibility and Safety of a Coaxial Dual-Wavelength Optical Coherence Tomography Apparatus.

Purpose: To evaluate the feasibility and safety of a coaxial dual-wavelength optical coherence tomography (OCT) device (marked as Hydra-OCT).

Methods: Healthy participants without ocular pathology underwent retinal imaging using the Hydra-OCT allowing for simultaneous measurement of retinal scanning of 840 and 1,072 nm wavelength. Before and after measurement, best-corrected visual acuity and patients' comfort were assessed.

Safety and Feasibility of a Novel Sparse Optical Coherence Tomography Device for Patient-Delivered Retina Home Monitoring.

Purpose: To study a novel and fast optical coherence tomography (OCT) device for home-based monitoring in age-related macular degeneration (AMD) in a small sample yielding sparse OCT (spOCT) data and to compare the device to a commercially available reference device.

Methods: In this prospective study, both eyes of 31 participants with AMD were included. The subjects underwent scanning with an OCT prototype and a spectral-domain OCT to compare the accuracy of the central retinal thickness (CRT) measurements.
