## Indications for use
The SPECTRALIS is a non-contact ophthalmic diagnostic imaging device. It is intended for: • viewing the posterior segment of the eye, including two- and three-dimensional imaging • cross-sectional imaging (SPECTRALIS HRA+OCT and SPECTRALIS OCT) • fundus imaging • fluorescence imaging (fluorescein angiography, indocyanine green angiography; SPECTRALIS HRA+OCT, SPECTRALIS HRA) • autofluorescence imaging (SPECTRALIS HRA+OCT, SPECTRALIS HRA and SPECTRALIS OCT with BluePeak) • performing measurements of ocular anatomy and ocular lesions. The device is indicated as an aid in the detection and management of various ocular diseases, including: • age-related macular degeneration • macular edema • diabetic retinopathy • retinal and choroidal vascular diseases • glaucoma The device is indicated for viewing geographic atrophy. The SPECTRALIS HRA+OCT and SPECTRALIS OCT include the following reference databases: • a retinal nerve fiber layer thickness reference database, which is used to quantitatively compare the retinal nerve fiber layer in the human retina to values of Caucasian normal subjects – the classification result being valid only for Caucasian subjects • a reference database for retinal nerve fiber thickness and optic nerve head neuroretinal rim parameter measurements, which is used to quantitatively compare the retinal nerve fiber layer and neuroretinal rim in the human retina to values of normal subjects of different races and ethnicities representing the population mix of the USA (Glaucoma Module Premium Edition)
