Ophthalmic Scope Shows More Details

Ophthalmic Scope Lets You See More Details
High-contrast illumination makes it easy to differentiate tissues.

Your surgeons can see much more in the red reflex than they're accustomed to when they look through the OPMI Lumera surgical microscope, says manufacturer Carl Zeiss Surgical GmbH. The OPMI Lumera is equipped with stereo coaxial illumination technology to provide a bright and stable image with high contrast and extraordinary details that make it easy to differentiate tissues, even when the patient has thick cataracts, says the company. All the illumination settings are on one control element, so the surgeon can manage the depth-of-field management system light transmission with the touch of a button to get the best view for his needs. The scope can be attached to a floor stand or a ceiling mount. To avoid interruptions during procedures, the fully automatic halogen bulb change system switches over to a backup bulb when one burns out. The manufacturer declined to disclose the price. For more information, call (925) 557-4100, visit www.meditec.zeiss.com/lumera or circle 167 on your Reader Service Card.
