The invention is directed to a laser scanning ophthalmoscope for viewing the ocular fundus of the eye of a patient. A laser source generates a laser beam and a first scanner imparts an oscillatory deflection to the laser beam in a first direction. A second scanner imparts an oscillatory deflection to the laser beam in a second direction and transmits the oscillating laser beam toward the ocular fundus. At least a portion of the light of the laser beam is reflected from the ocular fundus and a detector detects the reflected light. A display displays an image defined by the light reflected from the ocular fundus and a control is connected to the display for selecting a sectional image of the image and the sectional image corresponds to a subregion of the ocular fundus. A drive motor pivotally moves at least one of the first and second scanners and a drive unit controls the drive motor. An interface connects the control to the drive unit.

1. A laser scanning ophthalmoscope for viewing the ocular fundus of the eye of a patient, the laser scanning ophthalmoscope comprising:a laser source generating a laser beam; a first scanner for imparting an oscillatory deflection to said laser beam in a first direction; a second scanner for imparting an oscillatory deflection to said laser beam in a second direction and for transmitting the oscillating laser beam toward said ocular fundus whereby at least a portion of the light of said laser beam is reflected from said ocular fundus; detector means for detecting the light reflected from said ocular fundus; a display for displaying an image defined by the light reflected from said ocular fundus; control means connected to said display for selecting a sectional image of said image and said sectional image corresponding to a subregion of said ocular fundus; a drive motor for pivotally moving at least one of said first and second scanners; a drive unit for controlling said drive motor; and, an interface for connecting said control means to said drive unit.
