    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Biomedical Optics
    • Medical Imaging

    Context:

    • Traditional slit lamp biomicroscopy often requires contact lenses.
    • Accurate measurement of intraocular structures is crucial for ophthalmic procedures.
    • Fundus microscopy offers a magnified view of the posterior eye segment.

    Purpose:

    • To describe a non-contact method for slit lamp biomicroscopy using upright Gullstrand fundus microscopy.
    • To detail the stereotactic principle for precise object localization within the vitreous cavity.
    • To demonstrate the application of this technique for guiding laser beams in fundus procedures.

    Summary:

    • Slit lamp biomicroscopy is performed without a contact lens using upright Gullstrand fundus microscopy.
    • Controlled slit beam angulation allows for accurate measurement of object positions in the vitreous by correcting object and image points.
    • This stereotactic method facilitates precise guidance of laser beams onto the fundus.

    Impact:

    • Enables non-contact visualization and measurement of intraocular structures.
    • Improves precision and safety in fundus laser treatments.
    • Provides a valuable tool for ophthalmic diagnostics and surgical planning.
