Systems and methods for analyzing the eye

A medical device for imaging at least a portion of an eye of a patient, the medical device comprising:

• a patient support adapted to position the eye of the patient;
• a movable base moveable relative to the patient support;
• an illumination system including at least one source producing light to illuminate the eye and an illumination system support arm supporting the at least one source, the illumination system support arm being supported by the moveable base and rotatable relative to the moveable base;
• an observation system including a plurality of cameras each configured to receive imaging rays produced by reflection of light from the eye of the patient, and at least one observation system support arm supporting the plurality of cameras, the at least one observation system support arm being supported by the moveable base and rotatable relative to the moveable base and rotatable relative to the illumination system support arm;
• a storage device operatively coupled to at least one of the plurality of cameras to receive and store a plurality of images of the eye imaged by the least one of the plurality of cameras;
• and
• a controller operatively coupled to the storage device and configured to determine an alignment of the observation system relative to the eye of the patient.
