The ICON is a wide-field high-resolution retinal imaging system optimized for pediatric patients to age 18. The image is captured using a hand-held corneal contact camera and is displayed in real-time. The camera contacts the cornea to image the retina and is connected to a cart with the power supplies, controls, computer and display unit. The light source for bright field imaging is a white-light LED located in the hand piece and the hand piece is connected to a mobile through a USB cable and cables for focus motor and LED light. Software in the computer performs library functions and can capture either still or video data. Data can be exported with or without patient information.
An electrically-powered optical device intended to be used to create digital colour photographic images/video of the ocular fundus (interior eye surface opposite the lens) through the pupil, to aid in diagnosing and monitoring retinal pathology; it may also be used for images/video of the anterior chamber. The image/video is typically transferred to a computer for display on its screen and/or for storage in a database. This device is also known as a retinal camera.
