Abstract
Imaging and documentation of the human retina is conventionally accomplished by a photographic fundus camera, a standard commercial product for many years. Exposure procedures require high flashlight intensities — usually 10% to 100% of the maximum just be accepted for a normal eye but can cause ocular damage in pathological cases. A different method of retinal imaging by laser scanning funduscopy will be presented that overcomes the intensity problem and promises further advantages.
