Abstract

In this study, we design and present a five-fold digital slit-lamp microscope (DSLM) with built-in photographic lens and CCD. The initial structures of the front objective, Galilean telescope system, and photographic lens are systematically investigated and discussed in the design. A progressive optimization process is employed in the non-coaxial system design after the coaxial system achieves high performance. The analysis of spot diagrams and the modulation transfer function (MTF) show that this DSLM optical system achieves quasi-diffraction-limited performance and enables high-quality imaging for ophthalmic examination. Furthermore, tolerance analysis of this optical system is also performed, which provides a theoretical basis for machining and assembly. This design provides an idea for the design of a digital-zoom microscope in biomedical imaging instruments.
