Abstract:
An apparatus for imaging an interior of an eye includes a light sensitive sensor, and a housing structure with an opening defining an imaging area to place the eye for imaging by the light sensitive sensor. One or more light emitters (LEs) are disposed in an image path between the light sensitive sensor and the eye during capture of a plurality of images. A controller is coupled to the plurality of LEs and the light sensitive sensor. The controller implements logic that when executed by the controller causes the apparatus to perform operations including: illuminating the imaging area with the one or more LEs; and capturing, with the light sensitive sensor, the plurality of images of the interior of the eye at the same time as the eye is illuminated with the light from the one or more LEs.
