There is provided an apparatus (10； 100) for imaging a retina (12) of an eye (14). The apparatus (10) comprises a wide-angle lens system (18) configured to output light from a light source (16) and receive light from the retina (12) when the apparatus (10； 100) is used to image the retina (12), and a light transfer device (20； 200, 20) having a first focus point (20a； 200a) where the wide-angle lens system (18) is provided, and a second focus point (20b) where the eye (14) is located when the apparatus (10) is used to image the retina (12). The apparatus (10； 100) further comprises a detector (50； 52) configured to receive the light from the retina (12) through the wide-angle lens system (18) when the apparatus (10； 100) is used to image the retina (12). The light transfer device (20； 200, 20) is configured to transfer the light from the wide-field lens system (18) into the eye (14) and the light from the retina (12) into the wide-angle lens system (18) when the apparatus (10； 100) is used to image the retina (12).
