The dynamic range in magnification power of the ESL-Emerald-18 grants it the nickname “Zoom”. The continuous field of view provides advantages over fixed magnification slit lamp instruments. Traditional fixed magnification slit lamps require large jumps in magnification between objectives causing the object in focus to be lost in the zooming process. With continuous zoom the object observed is never lost in sight while magnification is occurring which allows the practitioner to quickly change perspectives. The “zoom” is easily varied by the rotation of a drum and provides a seamless magnification range from 10x to ~30x to allow for a more fluid workflow for the visual health doctors.
The ergonomic design of ESL-Emerald-18 provides a clear and detailed illumination and observations for patients eye. Traditional fixed magnification slit lamps require large jumps in magnification between objectives causing the object in focus to be lost in the zooming process. With continuous zoom the object observed is never lost in sight while magnification is occurring which allows the practitioner to quickly change perspectives. The “zoom” is easily varied by the rotation of a drum and provides a seamless magnification range from 11x to ~33x to allow for a more fluid workflow for the visual health doctors.
Convergent optics for user’s comfort usage while still images and videos can be taken adequately in place.
The Japanese ESL-Emerald-TN tonometer(sold separately) is a precision application tonometer designed to mount onto slit lamp equipped stereomicroscopes used for measuring intraocular pressure (IOP).
