Abstract

A high speed polarization sensitive spectral domain optical coherence tomography setup has been developed. The system retrieves the backscattered intensity, birefringence, and optic axis orientation with only one A-scan per measurement location. The setup was used to image the polarization properties of the human retina at the fovea and the optic nerve head region, and the polarization properties of the anterior eye segment.
