に視認する。On the other hand, 37 is a converging lens, and 38 is a light emitting diode that emits weak light for an index, and has a function as a so-called fixation target. This light emitting diode 38 can freely move within a plane perpendicular to the optical axis. Further, in this embodiment, the focus of the fundus of the subject's eye is adjusted by moving the imaging lens 2, and the converging lens 37 and the imaging lens 2 are linked to adjust the fundus Ef with respect to the objective lens 1 and the imaging lens 2. Film side 3
The relationship between the fundus E with respect to the objective lens 1 and the convergent lens 37 is
The relationship between f and the light emitting diode 38 is maintained to be equal. In other words, the light emitting diode 38 is 11mm wide (Ef) - Abdominal position ν - Afuichi Therefore, when the mastication cazola is focused on the fundus of the eye, the subject clearly sees the light emitting diode 38.

ることにより撮影を行なう。With the above configuration, when the light source 4 is turned on, an image of the fundus of the eye is reflected on the cathode ray tube 20, and an image of the anterior segment of the eye is reflected on the cathode ray tube 36. The operator observes the image of the anterior segment of the eye and roughly aligns the working distance and the objective lens with the eye to be examined. Furthermore, the fundus image is observed to perform focus adjustment and fine positioning to prevent flare. Note that the photographing field of view can be determined by setting the light emitting diode 38 at an appropriate position and guiding the line of sight of the eye to be examined. Then, after confirming that the focus adjustment and positioning adjustment are good, a photograph is taken by lighting the strobe tube.
ここで導光鏡31は眼底撮影時には光路外へ除去するが
、撮影前には光路内にあり前眼部観察時には発光ダイオ
ード38を被検眼に視認させつつ前眼部観察かてきる。Here, the light guiding mirror 31 is removed out of the optical path when photographing the fundus, but it remains in the optical path before photographing, and when observing the anterior segment of the eye, the light emitting diode 38 is made visible to the eye to be examined while observing the anterior segment of the eye.
又導光鏡31はその直径か′f17影光束径より小さい
ため眼底観察時に発光ダイオード38を被検眼に視認さ
せつつも導光鏡31の周辺部を通過する光束によって眼
底観察かてきる。In addition, since the diameter of the light guide mirror 31 is smaller than the diameter of the shadow light flux 'f17, the fundus can be observed by the light flux passing through the periphery of the light guide mirror 31 while the light emitting diode 38 is visible to the subject's eye during fundus observation.

イオード38は検者に視認されず被検者のみに視認され

ド38か視認されることもない。Note that since the examiner observes the monitor all the time, the light emitting diode 38 is not visible to the examiner but only to the subject. Note that the light emitting diode 38 is not visible to the examiner through the oblique semi-transparent mirror 32.

を組合せた超高感度撮像管に替えても良い。By the way, in the above configuration, the infrared filter 7 is removed and the light from the light source 4 is attenuated to such an extent that the light from this light source does not linearly move the defect in the eye to be examined, that is, it becomes substantially invisible light.
The image pickup tube 18 may be replaced with an ultra-high sensitivity image pickup tube that combines an image intensity fire and a vidicon.
(効 果〕
以上、本発明によればピント調整系に連動する結像光学
系を介して固視標は被検眼視度に拘らず常に鮮明に視認
される。(Effects) As described above, according to the present invention, the fixation target is always clearly visible through the imaging optical system linked to the focus adjustment system, regardless of the diopter of the eye to be examined.
特に、被検眼は不可視光で照明されるため被検眼は暗い
背景の中で固視標を明瞭に視認でき、固視標の輝度も小
ざくて済む。In particular, since the eye to be examined is illuminated with invisible light, the eye to be examined can clearly see the fixation target in a dark background, and the brightness of the fixation target can also be low.
又、本発明によれは、照明光学系に兼用される対物光学

よれば固視標を眼底撮影時に変位させなくても良い。Further, according to the present invention, there is no need to make any changes to the objective optical system that also serves as the illumination optical system, and the illumination conditions for eliminating flare can be ensured. Further, if the fixation target is within the optical path of the fundus observation system, it is necessary to move it out of the optical path when photographing the fundus, but according to the present invention, the fixation target does not need to be displaced when photographing the fundus.
更に本発明によれば被検眼前眼部の観察時に被検眼の視
線を固定して被検眼の位置合わせを容易にすることがで
きる。Further, according to the present invention, it is possible to fix the line of sight of the eye to be examined during observation of the anterior segment of the eye to be examined, thereby facilitating positioning of the eye to be examined.
又、前眼部観察時に視線を定める際、固視標は被検眼像
を観察している検者には視認されず、被検者にのみ視認
されるため固視標が検者の妨げになるということがない
。In addition, when determining the line of sight during anterior segment observation, the fixation target is not visible to the examiner who is observing the image of the subject's eye, but only to the subject, so the fixation target may interfere with the examiner. There is no such thing as becoming.
