Abstract
An infrared binocular indirect ophthalmoscope (iBIO) is provided to the simultaneous examination and treatment of the human eye. The iBIO operates in infrared light, at long wavelengths to penetrate the eye and image the retina. The iBIO can further include a treatment beam to activate an appropriate agent that has been injected in the human eye, for performing a treatment on the eye. The photosensitizing agent can include any photosensitive material that is activated at a predetermined wavelength. Can be useful in photodynamic therapy and other types of treatment for simultaneous examination and treatment of the human eye.
