    What is a Dispositional Masker?
    Mind 120 (480): 1159-1171. 2011.
    Manley and Wasserman criticize the conditional analysis of dispositions, arguing that whilst it invites the ‘strategy of getting specific’, this strategy creates more problems than it solves. I show that their understanding both of the phenomenon of masking and also of the strategy of getting specific is deeply defective, which wreaks havoc with their principal critique of the conditional analysis of dispositions

    Objectives: To elucidate the visual significance of the foveal pit by measuring foveal architecture and function and to reassess use of the term foveal hypoplasia. Methods: We describe 4 patients who lack a foveal pit. Visual acuities ranged from 20/20 to 20/50. Stratus and Cirrus optical coherence tomographs and multifocal electroretinograms were obtained. High-resolution retinal imaging on 2 of the participants was obtained by using a high-resolution Fourier-domain OCT and an adaptive optics f…Read more

    Purpose: To describe maculopathy diagnosed with high-resolution Fourier-domain optical coherence tomography among eyes with previously unexplained visual loss. Methods: Nine eyes from six patients with previously unexplained vision loss based on funduscopy, fluorescein angiography, and Stratus optical coherence tomography and 32 eyes from 25 asymptomatic age-matched control subjects were imaged with a Fourierdomain optical coherence tomography instrument with axial resolution of 4 mm to 4.5 mm a…Read more

    High-resolution fourier-domain optical coherence tomography of choroidal neovascular membranes associated with age-related macular degeneration
    with S. S. Park, S. N. Truong, R. J. Zawadzki, S. Alam, D. G. Telander, J. S. Werner, and L. S. Morse
    PURPOSE. To investigate the use of high-resolution Fourierdomain optical coherence tomography to image choroidal neovascular membranes associated with exudative age-related macular degeneration. METHODS. An Fd-OCT instrument with axial resolution of 4 to 4.5 μm and transverse resolution of 10 to 15 μm was used to image 21 eyes with newly diagnosed eAMD. A raster series of 100 B-scans separated by 60 μm was used to study the growth pattern of CNVM and associated morphologic changes. CNVM size was…Read more

    Adaptive-optics optical coherence tomography for high-resolution and high-speed in vivo retinal imaging
    with R. J. Zawadzki, S. Laut, J. S. Werner, S. M. Jones, S. S. Olivier, M. Zhao, B. A. Bower, and J. A. Izatt
    We have combined Fourier-domain optical coherence tomography with a closed-loop Adaptive Optics system. The AO-OCT instrument has been used for in vivo retinal imaging. High-lateral resolution of our AO-OCT system allows visualization of the microscopic retinal structures not accessible by standard OCT instruments. © 2005 SPIE and OSA.
  • High-resolution Fourier-Domain Optical Coherence Tomography and Microperimetric Findings After Macula-off Retinal Detachment Repair
    with A. J. Smith, D. G. Telander, R. J. Zawadzki, L. S. Morse, J. S. Werner, and S. S. Park
    Objective: To evaluate the morphologic changes in the macula of subjects with repaired macula-off retinal detachment using high-resolution Fourier-domain optical coherence tomography and to perform functional correlation in a subset of patients using microperimetry. Design: Prospective observational case series. Participants: Seventeen eyes from 17 subjects who had undergone anatomically successful repair for macula-off, rhegmatogenous RD at least 3 months earlier and without visually significan…Read more
  • Combined adaptive optics - Optical coherence tomography and adaptive optics - Scanning laser ophthalmoscopy system for retinal imaging
    with R. J. Zawadzki, S. M. Jones, D. Chen, J. W. Evans, S. S. Olivier, and J. S. Werner
    We describe a novel instrument that combines adaptive optics - Fourier-domain optical coherence tomography with an adaptive optics scanning laser ophthalmoscope. Both systems share a common AO sub-system and vertical scanner to permit simultaneous acquisition of retinal images from both OCT and SLO. One of the benefits of combining OCT with SLO includes automatic co-registration between the two imaging modalities and potential for correcting lateral and transversal eye motion resulting in motion…Read more
  • Recent developments in adaptive optics - optical coherence tomography allow for ultra-high isotropic resolution imaging of the in-vivo retina, offering unprecedented insight into its volumetric microscopic and cellular structures. In addition to this promising achievement, the clinical impact and application of this technology still needs to be explored. This includes assessment of limitations and challenges for existing as well as future AO-OCT systems, especially in the context of potential tr…Read more
