TL;DR: A novel spectral domain OCT (SD-OCT) camera based on a free-space parallel illumination architecture and equipped with adaptive optics was developed and sufficient to observe the interface between the inner and outer segments of individual photoreceptor cells, resolved in both lateral and axial dimensions.

TL;DR: The first observations of the three-dimensional morphology of cone photoreceptors in the living human retina are reported, with regular distribution of bright spots observed within C-scans at the inner segment / outer segment (IS/OS) junctions and at the posterior tips of the OS were found to be highly correlated with one another and with the expected cone spacing.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a method of optical imaging comprising providing a sample to be imaged, measuring and correcting aberrations associated with the sample using adaptive optics, and imaging the sample by optical coherence tomography.

TL;DR: This is the first demonstration of in vivo optical imaging of the fast physiological processes that accompany phototransduction in individual photoreceptors in the living human eye.

TL;DR: It is suggested that ascription of the outer retinal band 2 to the inner segment ellipsoid is unjustified, because the ellipseid is both too thick and proximally located to produce the band.
