OCT-based technique captures subtle details of photoreceptor function – EurekAlert

Researchers have developed a new instrument that has, for the first time, measured tiny light-evoked deformations in individual rods and cones in a living human eye. The new approach could one day improve detection of retinal diseases such as age-related macu…
