Cover Story: Modern ophthalmic imaging, such as optical coherence tomography (OCT), relies on mechanical scanners to move the light beam while the patient passively fixates. This proof-of-concept study explores whether natural eye movements can replace scanner motion through active gaze guidance. Using an infrared fundus setup, the subjects traced visual patterns with real-time feedback instead of passively viewing them. Active tracing increased pupil diameter by an average of 17.8 % and reduced blinking, with stronger effects for more complex patterns. These findings show that patient-driven gaze guidance can induce natural pupil dilation and may enhance image quality in future scannerless OCT systems. View this paper
