A hand-held line scanning laser ophthalmoscope (LSLO)

The line scanning laser ophthalmoscope (LSLO) is a compact wide-field confocal retinal imager. A cylindrical lens fans a beam to a line which is scanned on the retina by a single galvanometer and de-scanned back to a linear array detector. The LSLO is now sold as part of PSI's suite of ocular interface instruments. It has also been added to the front-end of several of our high-resolution systems to operate in a dual imaging mode.
