Henle fiber layer phase retardation measured with polarization-sensitive optical coherence tomography

Abstract: We developed a method based on polarization-sensitive optical coherence tomography (PS-OCT) to quantify the double pass phase retardation (DPPR) induced by Henle fiber layer in three subjects. Measurements of the retina were performed at a mean wavelength of 840 nm using two polarization states that were perpendicular in a Poincaré sphere representation and phase retardation contributions from tissue layers above and below the Henle fiber layer were excluded using appropriately placed reference and measurement points. These points were semi-automatically segmented from intensity data. Using a new algorithm to determine DPPR, the Henle fiber layer in three healthy subjects aged ...
