The researchers are developing next-generation ophthalmoscopes that can detect subtle changes in the eye that may indicate underlying health problems.
Stephen Burns stands with a high-precision ophthalmoscope capable of observing microscopic details in the back of the eye without distortion based on technology advanced at IU.
