Retina photographing apparatus and retina photographing method using same

Abstract

A retina photographing apparatus includes a body unit, a retina photographing unit installed inside the case, and a driving unit. The body unit includes a case providing an outer appearance of the retina photographing apparatus. The retina photographing unit is structured to irradiate light onto a retina of an examinee's left or right eye and detect the light reflected from the retina. The retina photographing unit is operable to acquire an image of the retina. The driving unit is arranged to be inside the case and configured to move a position of the retina photographing unit inside the case such that the retina photographing unit photographs both of the examinee's eyes. The driving unit is further operable to locate the position of the retina photographing unit and adjust the position to an optimal position by using stored position information.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
