Abstract

An example eye imaging device can include: a camera configured to capture fundus images of an eye of a patient; and a stimuli to configured to stimulate the patient and assess a disease state or a mental state of the patient. Another example eye imaging device can include: a camera configured to capture fundus images of an eye of a patient; and a physical barrier surrounding at least a portion of the eye imaging device to minimize exposure of the eye imaging device.

Claims (26)

1 . An eye imaging device, comprising:

a camera configured to capture fundus images of an eye of a patient; and

a stimuli to configured to stimulate the patient and assess a disease state or a mental state of the patient.

2 . The eye imaging device of claim 1 , wherein the stimuli includes an array of lights.

3 . The eye imaging device of claim 1 , wherein the stimuli includes a speaker.

4 . The eye imaging device of claim 1 , further comprising one or more additional cameras configured to track movement of the eye.

5 . The eye imaging device of claim 1 , further comprising one or more sensors.

6 . The eye imaging device of claim 1 , wherein the sensors include a temperature sensor.

7 . The eye imaging device of claim 1 , wherein the sensors include an oximetry sensor.

8 . An eye imaging device, comprising:

a camera configured to capture fundus images of an eye of a patient; and

a physical barrier surrounding at least a portion of the eye imaging device to minimize exposure of the eye imaging device.

9 . The eye imaging device of claim 8 , further comprising a detachable face cup.

10 . The eye imaging device of claim 9 , wherein the face cup includes at least one magnet.

11 . The eye imaging device of claim 8 , wherein the physical barrier is a cover.

12 . The eye imaging device of claim 11 , wherein the cover encompasses a housing of the eye imaging device.

13 . The eye imaging device of claim 11 , wherein the cover encompasses a face cup of the eye imaging device.

14 . The eye imaging device of claim 8 , wherein the physical barrier extends to surround a structure supporting the eye imaging device.

15 . A method for imaging an eye, the method comprising:

providing a camera configured to capture fundus images of an eye of a patient; and

positioning a physical barrier surrounding at least a portion of the eye imaging device to minimize exposure of the eye imaging device.

16 . The method of claim 15 , further comprising a detachable face cup.

17 . The method of claim 16 , wherein the face cup includes at least one magnet.

18 . The method of claim 15 , wherein the physical barrier is a cover.

19 . The method of claim 18 , wherein the cover encompasses a housing of the eye imaging device.

20 . The method of claim 15 , wherein the cover encompasses a face cup of the eye imaging device.
