Floaters, Vitreous Opacities
Conditions
Brief summary
Vitreous opacities (VOs), commonly known as floaters, are dark spots that appear in, and may float across your vision. Presently, there is a lack of available data in the literature regarding VOs. This study aims to obtain imaging data of VOs in the population to build an imaging database of VOs to learn more about them.
Interventions
Combined scanning laser ophthalmoscope (SLO) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) for imaging of the eye
Sponsors
Study design
Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Aged 18 years or older * SVO-related symptoms in vision * Clear ocular media, to allow a clear view of the vitreous for the SVO-ID
Exclusion criteria
