| 20090244484 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR OPTICAL DETECTION OF LIPOFUSCIN CONCENTRATIONS IN A SUBJECT'S EYE - A method for optical detection of lipofuscin concentrations in the retina is described. A subject's eye is exposed to a light source. Light emitted from the subject's eye is detected. Levels of lipofuscin are determined from the emitted light. A system for optical detection of lipofuscin in the retina is described. The system includes a light source to generate light. The system includes an optical detector in optical communication with the light source. The optical detector is configured to detect light emitted from a subject's eye. A computing device in electronic communication with the optical detector is included in the system to determine levels of lipofuscin from the emitted light. | 10-01-2009 |
