Probably the inventor who has come near-est this ideal is Wolff (Monatsbl. f. Augen-heilk., p. 447, Oct., Nov., 1907) of Berlin,who has done much in the photography of thehuman fundus. He made use of the lightfurnished by the Zeiss projection apparatus,the efferent rays being reflected into the eye,through half the pupil, by a specially con-trived mirror. The efferent rays passed outthrough the other half of the pupil and werefocussed in a photographic camera. A circleof the fundus about 10 mm. is thus illuminatedat one time and the resulting picture — ofcourse in gray tones — is magnified from threeto four diameters. The required exposure isless than one-thirtieth of a second. The printsshowed the
