A teaching mirror for patient's observations during indirect ophthalmoscopy.
We developed a technique by which patients can observe the central fundus of their own contralateral eye during indirect ophthalmoscopy. This is achieved by adding an angulated mirror to the side of the presently available teaching mirror of the indirect ophthalmoscope. Self-indirect ophthalmoscopy is also feasible when the light source is kept stable.
