Abstract

An ophthalmic system/device (e.g., OCT or fundus imager) provides easy alignment for a patient with no, or minimal, assistance from a technician. This is achieved in a low cost device by using various patient-customized mechanisms that provide an initial rough alignment that brings the patient within an expected alignment range of the device. The ophthalmic device then provides a fine alignment by means of a custom mechanical guide operated by a single motor.
