[Specular microscopy: principles, choice of apparatus and applications (author's transl)].
Following a brief summary of the optical principles and problems inherent in endothelial specular microscopy, the authors describe the two types of specular microscopes used in the Ophthalmological Department of the University Hospital of Besançon. Their advantages and draw-backs are discussed, and a few representative pictures taken with these two instruments presented.
