Fundus camera - Fundus camera
A camera for photographing the condition of the fundus. Attempts at fundus photography began about 10 years after the development of the ophthalmoscope, with the early days being in the 1890s. In recent years, with advances in photosensitive materials and optical design, fundus photography has become a routine part of ophthalmic treatment as an indispensable device for recording and researching the fundus. The camera is assembled with an integrated illumination source and imaging section, and has a special function of eliminating harmful reflections from the corneal surface and illuminating and photographing the inside of the eye through a pupil less than 10 mm in diameter.
