Abstract
Disclosed is an ophthalmologic apparatus, such as a slit lamp microscope, which is improved in terms of cable routing when an imaging apparatus is used, thereby achieving an improvement in operability for the examiner, mitigating the bother or discomfort for the subject, and realizing an improved outward appearance. In a slit lamp microscope using cables for electrical connection between an imaging apparatus and an image processing system or a control system, there is provided a cable hole having an opening provided with at least two curved corners through which cables connected to the imaging apparatus come together and which is formed so as to enclose partially the near portion of the protrusive axle shell of the base, or there is provided a cable routing path in which the cables connected to the imaging apparatus are routed by way of an accommodating groove with a detachable cover provided on the front side of the support arm, a cable hole provided in a protrusive axle shell of a base protruding toward a chin rest stand from a pedestal, a cable hole of the chin rest stand, and a cable hole provided in a table, to be passed under the table.
