FWIW - Word of warning for those in a 'regulated' environment,  I get asked 
this question all the time...
Shooting any patient photos on your smart phone/personal camera etc opens up a 
huge can of HIPAA ugliness.
Just be careful how you use an adapter like this.

There is a modified direct ophthalmoscope available. An optomotrist bought it 
at the last convention.. not sure about manufacturer. Will tell you later. 
Needs dilation for acceptable photos. Actually takes movie or serial pictures.

Hi all. I'm looking for anyone who has used any type of I-phone interface for a 
slit lamp that allows you to take fundus photos. We have an optometrist in our 
group who has had luck with decent corneal images but we haven't managed to 
find anything that gives a decent fundus image. Any input would be greatly 
appreciated.

Thanks,
Steve
