Transscleral Flood Illumination (TFI) add-on module for the rtx1 Adaptive Optics Retinal Camera

This contract is for the procurement of a Transscleral Flood Illumination (TFI) add-on module designed for the rtx1 Adaptive Optics Retinal Camera. Issued by the National Institutes of Health Olao under the Department of Health and Human Services, the module is intended to expand imaging capabilities to allow for the investigation of retinal anatomy, pathology, and therapy at a microscopic scale. This technology enables the visualization of small retinal structures typically invisible in standard adaptive optics images, which is critical for monitoring ocular disease progression at a cellular level. The solicitation, numbered 75N98026Q01182IMAGINEOPTIC, was posted on September 9, 2026, with a response deadline of September 18, 2026. The project falls under NAICS code 423490 and will be performed in Bethesda, Maryland.
