Abstract: A binocular indirect ophthalmoscope for observing and examining the fundus of the human eye is realized by integrating an electro-optic imaging system in the viewing optics of the ophthalmoscope. Advantageously, this permits the stereoscopic observation of the retina and choroid using illumination ranging from the near ultraviolet to the infrared, including the visible spectrum. A light source illuminates a desired portion of a patient's fundus with the reflected radiation brought to focus to produce an aerial image of the fundus. A pair of ophthalmoscope lenses then magnify and image the aerial image along two different optical paths onto imaging sensors, such as charge coupled devices (CCDs) and image cameras, or image tubes, such as image intensifiers.
