CEI Van Outreach Screening Study

April 10, 2018 updated by: David Huang, Oregon Health and Science University

Prospective Evaluation of Optical Coherence Tomography Usage in the Screening of Eye Diseases

The primary goal of the trial is to show that optical coherence tomography (OCT) technology can be used to effectively screen for diseases of the eye including glaucoma, macular diseases and keratoconus. Glaucoma is a disease that causes permanent vision loss and is usually accompanied by increased eye pressure. Macular diseases affect sharp, central vision. Keratoconus is a disease that affects the cornea (clear surface covering the colored part of the eye).

Study Overview

Status

Completed

Detailed Description

The identification of many eye diseases would significantly benefit from earlier detection than is available with typical eye exams. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is an imaging technology that can perform non-contact cross-sectional imaging of tissue structure in real time. It is similar to ultrasound B-mode imaging, except that OCT measures the intensity of reflected light rather than sound waves.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
OCT screening efficacy for detection of early stage eye diseases in comparison to the current standard of care methods
Time Frame: 1 year
The primary goal of the trial is to show that OCT technology, specifically the FDA cleared iVue, can be used to effectively screen for glaucoma, macular diseases and keratoconus. The rate of detection of these diseases detected using OCT will be compared to the rate of detection by the physician's exam.
