Abstract (en)

[origin: WO03059157A1] The invention concerns a device and method for measuring the iridocorneal angle comprising: a light source (14) designed to reveal the differences of contrast in an image; image capture means (10); and image processing means (22) connected to the image capture means (10); the image processing means (22) receiving an image of the eye captured by the image capture means (10) and supplying in output a value of the iridocorneal angle, said value being obtained based on the analysis of the contrast differences in the image.
