Abstract
A device for visualizing an irido-corneal angle of an eye through a window of a patient interface configured to be placed on the eye includes and optics structure and at least one imaging apparatus. The optics structure is configured to engage with the patient interface to provide a line of sight through the window in the direction of the irido-corneal angle, and to subsequently disengage from the patient interface. The imaging apparatus is associated with the optics structure and aligned with the line of sight to enable capturing an image of the eye including the irido-corneal angle.
