Table 2. Retinal imaging modalities and their role in this study.

Modality	Usage	AO system	FOV	Reference
UHR-FD-OCT	▶ To assess the integrity of all the retinal layers	▶ NA	▶ 18° FOV	22
AO-UHR-FD-OCT	▶ Outer retina—cone photoreceptor and RPE layers	▶ Hartmann–Shack wavefront sensor	▶ 0.25×0.3 mm	15
	▶ Used on nine of the 10 glaucoma patients	▶ 2 DMs: a bimorph DM to correct the refractive error and a Micro-ElectroMechanical Systems DM for the higher-order aberration	▶ 0.86°×1.04° FOV
	▶ Retinal locations of different visual sensitivity based on the Humphrey visual-field analysis were selected for imaging		▶ 300 frames at ∼3 μm isotropic volumetric resolution
			▶ 841±61 nm imaging light
AO-FC	▶ Outer retina—cone photoreceptors	▶ Hartmann–Shack wavefront sensor	▶ 1° FOV	18
	▶ Imaged the same locations in seven of the nine eyes imaged with AO-UHR-FD-OCT above	▶ One DM: trial lenses used to correct the refractive error	▶ ∼2.5 μm lateral resolution
		▶ One DM: trial lenses used to correct the refractive error	▶ 650±40 nm imaging light

AO, adaptive optics; AO-FC, AO-flood illuminated fundus camera; DM, deformable mirror; FOV, field of view; UHR-FD-OCT, ultrahigh-resolution Fourier-domain optical coherence tomography.
