Diagnostic ability of confocal scanning ophthalmoscope for the detection of concurrent retinal disease in eyes with asteroid hyalosis.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To compare the diagnostic capacity of a color fundus camera (CFC), ultra-wide-field bicolor confocal scanning laser ophthalmoscope (BC-cSLO; OPTOS), and true-color confocal scanning ophthalmoscope (TC-cSO; EIDON) in detecting coexisting retinal diseases in eyes with asteroid hyalosis (AH).

Methods

The medical records of consecutive patients with AH who were referred to a tertiary hospital for subsequent assessment by a vitreoretinal specialist were retrospectively reviewed. Fundus images obtained simultaneously using CFC, BC-cSLO, and TC-cSO were classified into four grades based on their obscuration by asteroid bodies. The proportion of Grade 1 images (minimal obscuration group) was assessed for each imaging modality. The diagnostic and screening abilities for concu
