Ultrahigh-resolution ophthalmologic OCT system using a titanium:sapphire laser light source. The interferometer was dispersion balanced (using H2O water; BK7 glass; FS fused silica) and optimized for ultrabroad bandwidths to achieve axial resolutions of 2–3 μm. Polarization paddles (PC polarization controllers) were used to control incident polarization. The system was interfaced to a slit-lamp biomicroscope to permit simultaneous OCT imaging and en face retinal viewing.
