What this trial studies

This interventional comparison obtains images of eyes with intraocular or ocular surface tumors using the Intalight Dream and the Heidelberg Spectralis OCT devices. Eligible eyes are dilated and imaged on both machines during clinic visits, and resulting scans are compared for image clarity, tumor detail, and ability to visualize the retina or lesion. The procedure is noninvasive and brief, requiring the patient to fixate and sit still for short periods. Findings will show whether one device provides more useful imaging for diagnosing or monitoring ocular tumors.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Adults (≥18 years) with at least one intraocular or ocular surface tumor who have a natural or intraocular lens, pupils that dilate to about 3 mm, clear media for retinal imaging, and the ability to fixate and sit still.

Not a fit: Patients with opaque lenses or other eye disease that prevents viewing the retina, pupils that cannot dilate to the required size, or those unable to fixate or remain still are unlikely to benefit from the imaging comparison.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If one device yields consistently clearer tumor images, clinicians could detect and follow ocular tumors more accurately without extra invasive testing.

How similar studies have performed: OCT is widely used and prior work shows it can image eye tumors and that device-to-device comparisons are informative, though direct comparisons focused specifically on ocular tumors are less common.
