Overview
Brief Summary
The overall objective is to develop the hardware systems and software algorithms necessary to make accurate measurements of the whole eye with optical coherence tomography (OCT).
The research procedure that each subject will undergo is imaging with the OCT system. Three populations will be included: 1. Normals to ensure the imaging range of the system, 2. Patients with previous LASIK who will be undergoing cataract surgery, and 3. Patients with a history of cataract surgery or high myopia. The third group will also undergo MRI imaging for comparison.
There are no known risks to the subject from imaging with optical coherence tomography beyond what is normal for standard ocular photographic procedures. Light exposure is below ANSI limits. In groups 2 and 3, clinical parameters drawn from the OCT images will be compared to standard of care imaging.

Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- •21 years or older.
- •Pseudophakic group: has had prior uncomplicated cataract surgery with a monofocal or toric intraocular lens, able to undergo head MRI
- •High myopia group: refraction equal to or stronger than -6 D spherical equivalent, able to undergo head MRI
Exclusion Criteria
- •under 21 years of age, unable or unwilling to give consent.
- •Pseudophakic group: complications with cataract surgery or insertion of a multifocal intraocular lens, failure to pass MRI pre-screening (e.g. prior metallic implants, claustrophobic), unable to fixate.
- •High myopia group: failure to pass MRI pre-screening, unable to fixate.
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Difference in Radius of Curvature (Rc) of the Posterior Eye From OCT Compared to MRI
Time Frame: 36 months
The radius of curvature of the posterior eye will be measured via surface fitting of the posterior eye data from OCT and MRI. Data reported reflects the Rc of the posterior eye measured by OCT minus the value obtained by MRI measurement.
