Abstract: We present an application of in vivo anterior segment imaging of
the human eye with an ultrahigh speed swept source OCT instrument. For
this purpose, a dedicated OCT system was designed and constructed. This
instrument enables axial zooming by automatic reconfiguration of spectral
sweep range; an enhanced imaging range mode enables imaging of the
entire anterior segment while a high axial resolution mode provides detailed
morphological information of the chamber angle and the cornea. The speed
of 200,000 lines/s enables high sampling density in three-dimensional
imaging of the entire cornea in 250 ms promising future applications of OCT for optical corneal topography, pachymetry and elevation maps. The results of a preliminary quantitative corneal analysis based on OCT data free form motion artifacts are presented. Additionally, a volumetric and real time reconstruction of dynamic processes, like pupillary reaction to light stimulus or blink-induced contact lens movements are demonstrated.
