ABSTRACT:
An apparatus (50) for obtaining an image of the eye, has a light source (114) for providing an incident illumination and an apertured mirror (104) for directing at least a portion of the incident illumination along an optical axis. A curved objective mirror (102) directs the incident illumination received along the optical axis toward the retina of the eye and directs image-bearing light reflected from the retina back along the optical axis. The apertured mirror (104) transmits the image-bearing light reflected from the retina toward a sensor (108) for obtaining an image of the retina thereby.
