Abstract

PURPOSE: To use an operative microscope even as an ophthalmoscope without deforming it by arranging an optical system to change image alignment and an observing optical path in the rear of an ophthalmoscopic lens arranged in an adapter, and arranging a focus adjusing lens between the optical system and an objective lens. CONSTITUTION: An optical system 14 to change image alignment and a pupil is installed inside an ophthalmoscopic adapter 1 in an operative microscope 13, and a lens 15 is also slidably arranged along the optical axis between the optical system 14 and an object lens side end part of the adapter 1. An ophthalmoscopic lens 8 forms a vertical and lateral reversal image of a part of an eye on an intermediate image plane ZE1. This image is aligned through the optical system 14, and is formed on an intermediate image plane ZE2 in the size of the original by correcting the left and right sides to the former state. A focus is adjusted to an interested part of the eye on the inside of the adapter 1 by the lens 15. An image formed on the intermediate image plane ZE2 is observed by the operative microscope 13.

2. Description of the Related Art In order to observe a fundus of a human eye or a lens region in the vicinity of the fundus with a microscope, first, an intermediate image of a part of an eye to be observed is formed by an ophthalmoscopic lens, and the image is formed. Observe with a surgical microscope. This image observed in that way is upside down, left and right, and is a false stereoscopic image. That is, the front and back are reversed in terms of depth perception. However, in order to be able to perform microsurgical work, it is necessary to be aligned and have a stereoscopically correct image. Therefore, in the surgical microscope, it is necessary to exchange the two observation optical paths (pupil exchange) in order to avoid the false stereoscopic effect that occurs during stereoscopic observation, at the same time as the required image alignment.

This image alignment and pupil exchange can be performed by means of a prism system which is additionally arranged between the binocular barrel of the operating microscope and the magnification switching device. Such prism systems are described, for example, in German Laid-Open Patent Publication No. 3
No. 507458. This additional component increases the working distance between the patient's eye and the observer's pupil. However, in terms of ergonomics and medical practice, it is not desirable to increase the working distance. Moreover, such prismatic systems are particularly burdensome if the second person is to observe using another binocular barrel. For joint observation,
This is because a corresponding second similar prism system would be needed.

Is proposed in the issue. In this case, an ophthalmoscopic lens and a device for inverting the formed intermediate image are mounted in an adapter mounted on a surgical microscope. The corresponding prism system is then placed immediately in front of the main objective of the surgical microscope. Focusing on the region of interest of the eye is performed with each native surgical microscope. The microscope has a two-part main objective, one lens group of which is slidable with respect to the other. Therefore, each time the adapter is attached or detached, the setting of the surgical microscope must be changed, and such a work is very troublesome during the operation. Another disadvantage of the arrangement of the inverting prism system directly in front of the main objective is that at this location the diverging optical paths, which still partially overlap, are spatially completely separated by two separate inverting prism systems. It At that time, a part of those two optical paths is faded out. That is, it results in causing an image error (vignetting) in the surgical microscope. Furthermore, in such an arrangement, the main objective of the surgical microscope used is made up of two parts, which increases the overall length of the device, which should keep the surgeon's working area as wide as possible. The condition that it has to be contradicted.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Therefore, an object of the present invention is to perform image alignment of an intermediate image formed by an ophthalmoscopic lens, exchange observation optical paths, and without the need for deforming a surgical microscope. An object of the present invention is to provide an ophthalmoscopic examination adapter for a surgical microscope, which enables not only the conventional use of the operating microscope but also the selective use as an ophthalmoscope. Therefore, this ophthalmoscopic examination adapter must be capable of observing an intermediate image with an operating microscope without image error. Furthermore, the co-observer must also be able to make stereoscopic observations using this adapter, in which case only one binocular barrel needs to be added.

The above problems can be solved by an ophthalmoscopic examination adapter having the features of claim 1. Among the ophthalmoscopic examination adapters according to the invention is an optical system for performing the desired image alignment of the intermediate image formed on the first intermediate image plane by the ophthalmoscopic examination lens or the ophthalmoscopic examination objective lens. Furthermore, this optical system also exchanges the observation optical path (pupil exchange). Image alignment and pupil exchange occur just after the first intermediate image plane, where the stereoscopic viewing paths have not yet been completely separated but are not involved. Therefore, it is possible to successively observe the right and left-right images three-dimensionally and accurately with the conventional surgical microscope, and accordingly, it is not necessary to further modify the surgical microscope. Further, there is a focusing lens in the adapter between each optical system and the end of the adapter on the objective lens side. The focusing lens is slidable along the optical axis. The lens focuses on the area of interest of the eye. Therefore, the adapter according to the present invention allows for focusing without the need for any changes in the original surgical microscope. Therefore, in use, it is possible to quickly switch between an observation method using a surgical microscope and an observation method using a surgical microscope equipped with an ophthalmoscopic examination adapter. There's no need for time-consuming refocusing. If the adapter according to the present invention is provided with a proper turning device, it is possible to realize quick switching of the observation method. Also, when the adapter according to the invention is fitted, the working distance between the patient's eye and the observer's pupil remains constant. Therefore, this adapter can be widely used in each conventional surgical microscope. Therefore, when another person jointly observes, only one similar adapter needs to be used. In that case, the co-observer observes via an additional binocular barrel and a common main objective. Image alignment and pupil exchange are performed by an optical structure consisting of two field lenses and a triplet, or a corresponding direct-view inverting prism arranged in the adapter according to the invention.

FIG. 2 shows an opthalmoscopic examination adapter 1 according to the invention including optics for image alignment and pupil exchange. In this embodiment, the optical system is constructed as an optical structure having a plurality of lenses 9a, 10, 11, 12, 9b. The ophthalmoscopic lens 8 located on the side of the adapter 1 facing the patient's eye forms a vertically and horizontally inverted image of a part of the observed eye on the intermediate image plane ZE1.
This image shows the following five lenses 9a, 10, 11, 1
Images are imaged on the intermediate image plane ZE2 in full size in a state where they are aligned through 2, 9b and the left and right are restored to the original state. Substantial imaging is achieved by two lenses L3 having a positive refractive index:
10, L1: 12 and a lens L2: 11 having a negative refractive index, which is arranged between the lenses, L2: 11. The remaining two lenses A1: 9a; A2: 9b act as field lenses.
A lens 15, which is slidable along the optical axis, focuses inside the adapter 1 on the part of interest of the eye. The image formed on the intermediate image plane ZE2 is observed by the surgical microscope 13. Instead of arranging the individual elements of the optical structure one after another in a straight line, the imaging optical path is redirected so that this optical structure can be mounted in a corresponding adapter without significantly extending the length of the adapter. It is possible to arrange the elements inside the adapter in the state of doing.
