The primary objective of this study was to determine the percentage of clinically adequate (CA) fundoscopic images that could be obtained using the Pan Optic iExaminer system to perform nonmydriatic fundoscopic imaging in the pediatric emergency department (ED). Secondary objectives were to identify target age groups in which this technology is best utilized and evaluate the overall ease of use in this setting. ⋯ Fundoscopic images were consistently obtained using the Pan Optic iExaminer system in the pediatric ED particularly in children 2-18 years of age. CA images were obtained in children less than 2 years old, but less consistently.
