SS-HH-OCT as a Novel Diagnostic Modality for Early-Onset Retinal Dystrophies (EORDs)

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The goal of this observational study is to utilize a novel imaging system designed for high-resolution retinal imaging of neonates, infants and children to identify the signs of photoreceptor development and degeneration in children with early-onset inherited retinal dystrophies (EORDs). Participants will have research imaging with SS-HH-OCT at the time of clinically-indicated eye examinations or procedures. The investigators aim to establish the basis for utilization of OCT imaging in earlier diagnosis and disease monitoring in children with EORDs. This work will set data reference standards and IRD endpoints that can be used in clinical trials.

Inclusion CriteriaExclusion Criteria
  1. * Participant's age is between 0 through 8 years (\<9 years)
  2. * Parent/legal guardian gives consents for the imaging study
  3. * No ocular media opacities that could preclude imaging
  4. * Refractive error equal or lower than 6 diopters
  5. * Autosomal dominant gene: One pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant that meets the clinical phenotype
