Drugless Eye Examination System.

Abstract

A drugless eye examination system is disclosed that incorporates: an optical system for illuminating the retina of an eye, which has preferably been previously dilated by standard dark room or other drugless procedures, with infrared energy; another optical system for projecting a tiny red spot light on the retina of said eye, for eye-fixation purposes; and still another optical system for permitting an observer to look at and, hence, examine said eye, while it is being held fixed on said red spot light and illuminated by the aforesaid infrared energy. In combination therewith are several other optical systems which permit the taking of color or other photographs of the retina of said eye while it is optionally and timely illuminated with a flash of white light, and for implementing the remote display thereof by television or other projection apparatus.
