Abstract
A wide field fundus camera having multiple illumination beam projectors and to capture multiple retinal images at various viewing angles to facilitate wide field retinal examination. The wide field fundus camera images an entire retina at a single alignment. The wide field fundus camera provides visualization of a retina and Purkinje reflections simultaneously to facilitate alignment. The wide field fundus camera further contemplates narrow and broad slit beam illuminations to enhance autofocusing, imaging through less transparent crystalline lens, and reduction of haze due to reflected and scattered light from camera and ocular surfaces other than the retina. The wide field camera contemplates a real-time algorithm to reduce said reflected and scattered light haze in said retinal images. The wide field camera further contemplates automated montage of said multiple retinal images into a single wide field FOV retinal montage and automated removal reflected and scattered light haze from said retinal montage.
