Develop and Test Robotically Assisted Imaging System for the Front of the Eye
Conditions
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to develop and test a robotically assisted imaging system for the front of the eye with a goal of helping eye care through the emergency department.
Interventions
DEVICERobotically Aligned Eye Imaging System
Robotically Aligned Eye Imaging System is a non-contact, micrometer scale imaging technique that provides clinicians and researchers with high resolution in vivo images sufficient to visualize layered microanatomy in 3D. The study team will develop hardware systems and software algorithms necessary for acquiring ocular anterior segment images for those seeking eye care in emergency department settings.

Inclusion criteria
* Adult patients 18 years of age and older * Presenting with ocular complaints potentially indicative of an anterior segment pathology (e.g., foreign body sensation, red eye, pain)
Exclusion criteria
* Hemodynamically unstable patients (e.g., undergoing active resuscitation efforts) * Patients with potential penetrating trauma to the eye who may need immediate surgical care
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Sensitivity | Day 1 | Sensitivity of the ED providers' 1. standard of care exam and 2. assessment of robotically acquired ocular imaging to detect referable ocular pathology in the study participants will be compared. The on-duty ophthalmologist exam will serve as the gold standard. |
| Specificity | Day 1 | Specificity of the ED providers' 1. standard of care exam and 2. assessment of robotically acquired ocular imaging to detect referable ocular pathology in the study participants will be compared. The on-duty ophthalmologist exam will serve as the gold standard. |
