Abstract

We used a fiber demonstration teaching attachment of Olympus, lecture scope model LS-R, mounted on the Kowa RC-W retinal camera for simultaneous monocular observation during retinal photography and fluorescence angiography. This enables two observers to watch the same object simultaneously (Fig. 1). Unlike other systems the glass fiber bundle ensures optimum flexibility. It is our opinion that this fiberscope can also be adapted easily to other retinal cameras and photo-slitlamps.
