Provided is an ophthalmic camera comprising: a camera having a camera lens; at least one illumination means; and an ophthalmic lens. The centres of the ophthalmic lens and camera lens are aligned to form an alignment axis. The at least one illumination means is capable of linear movement along a radial axis of the camera lens and pivotal movement about the radial plane incorporating radial axis and alignment axis. In such a manner, the circle of light emitted by the at least one illumination means is constantly directed to the centre of the ophthalmic lens.
