Optical microsurgery of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) requires reliable real-time dosimetry to prevent unwanted overexposure of the neuroretina. The SPECTRALIS CENTAURUS device implements optical coherence tomography (OCT) to detect intentional elimination of RPE cells caused by a prototype laser for selective retina therapy (SRT).~Within this clinical trial the safety of the SPECTRALIS CENTAURUS device and its ability to detect RPE cell damage towards selective real-time laser microsurgery will be evaluated.
The objective of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety of the SPECTRALIS CENTAURUS device (HuCE-optoLab, BFH TI, Biel, CH) in a clinical setting on patients with retinal diseases.
