Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Feasibility of device
Time Frame: 1 year
We will organize and perform an observational study with the prototype OCT+FLIM device and contribute the acquired OCT/FLIM datasets from eyes of different age and status of the crystalline lens.
1 year

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
To provide two key technology aspects of the project:
Time Frame: 1 year

A. The first will be to bring forward a novel registration strategy for calibrated OCT and FLIM modalities, so that these can be used in conjunction.

B. The second will be to develop an image calibration and normalization method using the measured lens fluorescence lifetime and possibly also structural (OCT) information on lens and retina, so that data acquired by the device can be used across different patients in a consistent way.
