Sample patient diagnoses are listed and related to the retinal layers visible through the fundus camera. Examples of possible retinal abnormalities (which may or may not be evident in each specific patient) are correlated. To target the focus to a specific layer, note the patient\'s diagnosis, and focus on the specific abnormalities. If the retina is abnormally thick, you may be able to focus on the same retinal field at different levels. Double-check the focus with each field change.

optic disc not elevated
This sounds a bit different, I know. But: The fundus is the whole "object" being examined through ophthalmoscopy / fundoscopy. In the fundus, you find the papilla, the so-called "optic disc", the exit (or, if you like, the entry) of the optic nerve into the eye. Here you find, for example in glaucoma, pathological changes, disc cupping, etc.
These are alterations with effects on the height of the optic disc, resulting in an elevation related to the retinal level - margin and central portion of the disc behave differently.
I was not able to find a description such as "optic disc at the level of the retina" ... this is what is meant here, but rather "normal optic disc" or "optic disc not elevated".
To check this suggestion, pls. search for disc swelling, neuritis, glaucoma, disc cupping in Google, and you will find a lot of texts on the issue.
It's rather complex, and I am not an ophthalmologist - never wanted to be ... :-)) but good luck.

Anne Schulz
: The whole phrase likely refers to the optic disc rather than to the whole fundus, as neither "im Niveau" nor "scharf begrenzt" make much sense in describing the fundus.

Thanks! - right, "scharf begrenzt" is "clearly defined optic disc margins" (just found this ref. text: http://www.seagig.org/toc/v2n3/v2n3p9.pdf )
