An imaging device includes a light splitting unit which splits first light from a subject into second light and third light, first and second imaging units, and an arithmetic unit. The first light includes the second light having infrared light and at least one of green light and blue light, and the third light having red light or the green light. The first imaging unit includes a first and a second light reception regions. The first light reception region generates at least one of the group consisting of a B signal according to the blue light and a G signal according to the green light. The second light reception region generates an IR signal according to the infrared light. The arithmetic unit generates a visible light image signal from the R signal, the G signal, and the B signal and generates an infrared light image signal from the IR signal.

In certain embodiments, a system, a computer-implemented method, and computer-readable medium are disclosed for light efficient fluorescence imaging. The retina is flashed with broadband light and returned light is imaged after passing through one or more filters, such as notch filers, low-pass filters, and high-pass filters. Images may be captured with a single camera or at least two cameras, one capturing transmitted light from the filter and the other capturing returned light. Images may be combined by subtraction and/or addition to obtain a combined image representing light within a passband whereas no passband filters are used during imaging.
