## Indications for use
This device will be used in the same manner as all OCT scanner devices are used for two dimensional cross-sectional imaging of the posterior segment of the eye. It incorporates the original intended uses of our earlier claimed substantially equivalent products. It is used primarily for diagnosing and monitoring retinal diseases and disorders that manifest themselves in the posterior pole of the eye. Clinical studies with the OCT have demonstrated its effectiveness in detecting and quantifying the extent of macular edema, macular holes, retinal detachments and central serious chorioretinopathy.
