OPMI
VISU MICROSCOPES
Carl Zeiss
Carl Zeiss says the OPMI VISU 140 offers all of the basic functions necessary
for efficient cataract surgery, including a main lens and zoom optics that are
apochromatically corrected, and co-axial illumination for red reflex. Zeiss
considers the OPMI VISU 140 the system of choice for outpatient hospitals or
small clinics because if its
economical price.
The OPMI VISU 160 is designed for both anterior- and posterior-segment procedures. Its DeepView depth-of-field management system enables adjustment for optimizing either depth of field or light transmission and resolution.
The OPMI VISU 210, with new Superlux Eye xenon illumination, provides a white light that Zeiss says meets even the highest demands, resulting in a bright, high-contrast image with natural color. The VISU 210 is a unique assistant's microscope, with almost weightless positioning due to magnetic locking brakes which complete the system.

THE M844 AND THE M820
Leica Microsystems, Inc.
The M844, Leica's premium-class surgical microscope for ophthalmology, integrates APO Optichrome optics with QuadZoom. The M844 gives both the surgeon and assistant 100% illumination and 100% stereopsis.
The M820, also featuring APO Optichrome and the same high-grade light transmission optics, has a standard beamsplitter-assistant configuration and is the perfect solution for anterior segment procedures, says Leica.
Both the Leica M844 and M820 are matched with the F40 SlimStand, which features a small footprint and long net reach. The F40 stand is easy to position and maneuverable.
Leica's exclusive direct-halogen illumination optical system provides superior resolution, contrast and color, says Leica. The control unit and video monitor are packaged as one unit on the stand, offering intuitive control over all of the microscope's functions.
The StepCycle allows the surgeon to pre-program the microscope functions for each step of a surgical procedure.
