  • Patent number: 9737207
    Abstract: It is provided a method for quick switching to realize anterior and posterior eye segments imaging, which can realize quick switch and real-time image for locations at different depths. On one hand, with an ability of quick switch, objects at different depths can be measured, and the detection scope of the OCT system can be enhanced; the switch system is able to work stably and change positions accurately without influencing the signal-to-noise ratio of the system. On the other hand, the light beam can be respectively focalized at different locations. Thus, high quality of anterior and posterior eye segments imaging can be achieved with a relatively high lateral resolution for human eyes having different ametropia. Furthermore, based on the anterior and posterior eye segments imaging, an ability of real-time eye axial length measurement can be added.

  • Patent number: 9370300
    Abstract: An ophthalmic optical coherence tomography system and a method for quick switching to realize anterior and posterior eye segments imaging are provided, the system includes: an OCT interferometer primary module and a sample arm module, the OCT interferometer primary module includes an OCT light source, a fiber coupler, a reference arm, a detection module, an X-direction scanning unit, and a Y-direction scanning unit; the sample arm module includes an anterior eye segment imaging module and a posterior eye segment imaging module; the Y-direction scanning unit is rotatable; when the Y-direction scanning unit is at a first rotation angle, the Y-direction scanning unit reflects the light received by the X-direction scanning unit into the anterior eye segment imaging module; when the Y-direction scanning unit is at a second rotation angle, the Y-direction scanning unit reflects the light received by the X-direction scanning unit into the posterior eye segment imaging module.
