Abstract
A wide-angle funduscopic lens was used to take slit-lamp photographs of the posterior vitreous. The lens was then evaluated for its optics, magnification, field of view, and photographic usefulness and compared with the photographs taken using double aspheric preset lenses. The advantages of the wide-angle funduscopic lens were its wider field of view and ability to photograph the vitreous in the presence of a small pupil and cataract. The drawbacks were the darker image, low magnification, and artifactitious light reflection from the lens. The slit-lamp photographs using the wide-angle funduscopic lens were very useful in some complicated cases.
