Purpose: Due to the increasing importance of mouse models and mouse genetics in ophthalmic research, we have developed a goniolens for mice.
Methods: The size and basic design parameters of a human goniolens were adapted to the mouse eye.
Results: The goniolens is straightforward to use and allows non-invasive visualization of the structures of the anterior chamber angle, including Schlemm's canal, trabecular meshwork, iris and anterior surface of the peripheral ciliary body.
