Scanning-laser ophthalmic imaging system (An assembly of electrically-powered ophthalmic instruments and digital image capturing/processing devices that uses a low power laser beam to scan in two dimensions over the retina and detect the reflected (or returned) light to generate and capture digital confocal images of the fundus. It typically consists of a laser, optics, image detection system, a digital processor/computer, application software and image display monitor(s). It is typically used for, e.g., assessment/control of diabetic retinopathy/maculopathy, age-related macular degeneration (AMD), choroidal neovascularization (CNV), detection of retinal vascular disturbances, and diagnosis of chorioditis.)
