Abstract
The present invention relates to a fundus camera for photographing vascular condition of the retina in medical examination for checking health, and it comprises a retina illuminating system for projecting infrared illuminating light beam to the retina to be examined, a first barrier filter having a first transmission wavelength range and a second barrier filter having a second transmission wavelength range shifted toward longer wavelength range, said two barrier filters being interchangeable with each other, and a photographing system for angiography of the retina to be examined through either the first or the second barrier filters, whereby a proper fluorescent vascular image is photographed even when fluorescent light wavelength from the retina is changed with the lapse of time.
