Evaluation of the Precision of the Microperimetry Function of the Spectral OCT/SLO

To conduct a precision study to assess the microperimetry function of the Spectral OCT/SLO. The study will assess variability across measurements taken by three different operator-device configuration across clinical sites, variability between subjects within a given operator-device configuration, and variability within a subject for a single operator-device configuration.

Treatment and study plan

Primary outcomes

  1. Standard Deviation and Mean Test Results of Normal and With Pathology Participants Taken by 3 Different Operator-device Configurations

    Time frame: 1 Month

    A precision study was conducted that used 3 devices (each with a different operator). Each device was used to measure 4 normal subjects and 4 subjects with relevant eye pathology, with a total of 24 subject eyes (12 normal, 12 with pathology) measured across all three devices. For each subject, one eye was evaluated using 3 tests with repositioning at the start of each test. Test results were given in decibels which is the unit used in microperimetry testing. Overall mean and standard deviation in decibels were calculated for the two groups: normal and with pathology.

  2. Repeatability of Microperimetry Tests in Normal and With Pathology Participants Based on 3 Microperimetry Tests Taken for Each Participant for a Given Operator-device Combination.

    Time frame: 1 Month

    A precision study was conducted that used 3 devices (each with a different operator). Each device was used to measure 4 normal subjects and 4 subjects with relevant eye pathology, with a total of 24 subject eyes (12 normal, 12 with pathology) measured across all three devices. Test results were given in decibels as that is the standard measurement in microperimetry testing. For each subject, one eye was evaluated using 3 microperimetry tests with repositioning at the start of each test. Overall Repeatability SD and Repeatability SD Limit were calculated for the two groups: normal and with pathology.
