Abstract

A system for obtaining optical coherence tomography of the optical system of a person, comprising: an eyepiece customized for alignment and positioning to contact a person's eye socket and having a lens pocket for receiving a refractive lens customized for the person's eye refraction characteristics; a condensing system for receiving light from the eyepiece; a scanning module optically connected to the condensing system and having a mirror tiltable in two directions for obtaining optical scanning data from the person's optical system; and a spectrometer and camera module optically connected tothe scanning module for obtaining and storing the optical scanning data, wherein the eyepiece, condensing system and scanning module are arranged to provide an optical path for delivering a light beam to the person's eye, and receive reflected light to be directed to the scanning module.

Description

[0001] Cross references to related patent applications [0002] This application claims priority to U.S. Patent No. 62 / 579,599, filed October 31, 2017, and is incorporated herein by reference. technical field [0003] The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for a patient-user to obtain optical scan data of the optical system of their eye without an eye care professional. [0004] Background of the invention [0005] Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has become a standard of eye care practice for various diseases manifesting on the retina. Prices for these devices range from $30,000 to $90,000 and often require a skilled operator to achieve the desired results. Some recent OCT devices are capable of automatically aligning and focusing the patient's eyes, but operator input and patient positioning are still required. While these devices are now available in many eye care practices, they still require patients to come to the office for an initial diagnosis an...
