ABSTRACT
Digital infrared iris photography using a modified digital camera system was performed on approximately 300 subjects seen during routine clinical care and research at one facility. Because this image database offered an opportunity to gain new insight into the potential utility of infrared iris imaging, it was surveyed for unique image patterns. Then, a selection of photographs was compiled that would illustrate the spectrum of this imaging experience. Potentially informative image patterns were observed in subjects with cataracts, diabetic retinopathy, Posner-Schlossman syndrome, iridociliary cysts, long anterior lens zonules, nevi, oculocutaneous albinism, pigment dispersion syndrome, pseudophakia, suspected vascular anomaly, and trauma. Image patterns were often unanticipated regardless of preexisting information and suggest that infrared iris imaging may have numerous potential clinical and research applications, some of which may still not be recognized. These observations suggest further development and study of this technology.
