Abstract

PURPOSE:To omit a trouble to operate a still picture storage device simultaneously with an eyeground camera and to easily confirm a photographic condition by automatically switching the display of a moving picture and the display of a still picture. CONSTITUTION:When a checker B depresses a photographic switch 15, a signal is inputted to a display control circuit 14 and a record starting signal is sent to a still picture storage device 16. Synchronously with this operation, the near infrared cut filter of a tablet 4 is inserted to an optical path and a photographic light source 10 is emitted. Then, the reflected picture of an eyeground Ef is guided to a television camera 5 and a photographing signal is fetched from the television camera to the still picture storage device 16. After that, the recording of the picture is executed. When the picture recording operation is finished, the photographing signal of a photographed eyeground picture Ea is sent through the display control circuit 14 to a television monitor 19 and the eyeground picture Ea is projected. Continuously, after the photographing, the still picture is displayed on the television monitor 19 only for a time, which is set in a timer 17, and the display is automatically switched to the display of the moving picture. Then, the television monitor 19 projects the moving picture again and the still picture storage device 16 advance by one frame on a still floppy disk and returns to a condition, in which the next photographing and recording can be executed.

When observing the fundus E of the eye E to be examined, the head of the examinee A is fixed by the fixing member 23 so that the eye E to be examined is in front of the objective lens 1. The light is condensed by a condenser lens 11, reflected by a gicroic mirror 8, passes through a ring-shaped opening 7a of a ring slit 7, and is once imaged near the perforated mirror 2 by a relay lens 6. After that, it is reflected to the left by the perforated mirror 2, and the eye to be examined E is reflected by the objective lens 1.
The image is re-focused near the cornea of the eye and illuminates the fundus Ef. The reflected light from the fundus Ef of the illumination light is passed through the objective lens 1 to the perforated mirror 2.
After passing through the hole, the light is focused on the photographing lens system 3.
The light is focused again at the turret 4 to form a fundus image on the TV camera 5, and the output of the TV camera 5 is sent to the TV monitor 1 as a moving image of the fundus image Ea via the display control circuit 14.
It will be shown on 9th. The examiner performs alignment and focusing using the joystick 24 while observing the fundus image Ea. At this time, the still image recording device 16 is in a recording preparation state by the display control circuit 14.

Furthermore, when photographing the fundus Ef of the eye E to be examined, the photographing light source 10 emits light instantaneously, the light is condensed by the condenser lens 9, passes through the guichroic mirror 8, and then becomes a light beam for observation. The process proceeds in the same manner as above to illuminate the fundus Ef. In addition,
The near-infrared cut filter of the turret 4 is interposed on the optical path only during photographing, cuts the near-infrared light component of the light reflected from the fundus Ef, and the television camera 5 can obtain a good color signal of the fundus Ef. Note that the image pickup device of the television camera 5 may be replaced with an image pickup tube that is sensitive to visible light and near-infrared light.
