Evaluation of the Safety of Terahertz Scanning System on Corneas

NCT06967792 · Status: RECRUITING · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 5

Summary

This observational study aims to establish the safety profile of the use of Terahertz (THz) scanning system on corneal diseases. Participants with "non-seeing" eyes but normal corneas will undergo THz scanning. Eye examinations will be conducted at baseline, immediately after scanning, and at 1 day, 1 week, and 1 month post-scanning. These examinations will include measurements of visual acuity, eye structural, retinal health, corneal cell morphology, and corneal nerve status. The investigators hypothesize that the THz scanning system is safe for application to the human cornea.

Conditions

  • Corneal Diseases

Interventions

DEVICE

Terahertz (THz) scanning using THz Imaging system.

The Terahertz (THz) scanning system is non-invasive and non-contact. It is a prototype developed by Institute of Materials Research and Engineering (IMRE), A\*STAR, Singapore and is performed for the purpose of research. THz scanning will provide safety data in human and the measurement of cornea hydration status. Each THz scan will take approximately 1 second. Real-time data will be generated when participants are positioned in front of the device.
