Compact instrument for fluorescence image-guided surgery.

abstract：:In order to understand the relationship between accommodation and vision quality, a custom-built ultra-long scan depth spectral domain optical coherence tomography (UL-SDOCT) and a Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor (HSWFS) were combined. The resolution and scan depth of UL-SDOCT are 6 μm and 15.6 mm, respectively, which...
