OPMI VISU MICROSCOPES
Carl Zeiss Meditec
• Carl Zeiss Meditec 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 coaxial illumination for red reflex. CZM 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 Superlux Eye xenon illumination, provides a white light that CZM 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 Light Operation Microscope (LOM) series is Konan’s newest line of operation microscopes for ophthalmology. The microscopes have a “onetouch clamp,” providing an easy locking mechanism. The optics angle can be adjusted by a lever and users can then release the lever to fix the optics in the selected position.
A well-balanced pantograph arm helps in maneuvering the microscope. LOM also features the high-eye point, which allows users wearing glasses to look through the microscope. A builtin beam splitter enables easy upgrades to video-assisted systems.

THE LEICA OPHTHALMOLOGY PORTFOLIO
Leica Microsystems, Inc
• Leica ophthalmology microscopes feature direct illumination, which can be highly focused to provide crisper images and more consistent illumination throughout the field of view. There is never degradation of illumination, which can be a problem with fiber optic illumination systems, says Leica.
The M844, Leica’s premium class surgical microscope, features APO OptiChrome optics and gives both the surgeon and assistant 100% illumination and 100% stereopsis. The M820, Leica’s mid-range microscope, also features APO OptiChrome.
Both the Leica M844 and M820 feature an integrated video monitor and StepCycle, which allows the surgeon to preprogram the microscope functions for each step of a surgical procedure.
The M620 is the latest addition to Leica’s portfolio and is an ideal and economical solution for surgery centers.

OP-2Z OPERATION MICROSCOPE SHIN-NIPPON
Ophthalmic Instruments
• The OP-2Z Operation Microscope provides crisp, high stereopsis, zoom optics and bright halogen illumination. Imaging from anterior to intraocular structures are produced and viewed with distinct precision.
Coaxial illumination is aided by a light-guide system utilizing the halogen lamp. The OP-2Z features a continuous zoom system incorporating a 4.5x - 18x magnification range and optional X-Y movement device, each footswitch-controllable.
The design of the OP-2Z supports various pieces of optional equipment. You can build the microscope system that is dependent upon your requirements, not the manufacturer’s, according to the company. Assistant scopes, monocular and binocular video mounts and oblique illuminator with slit device are available as options.
The user-friendly OP-2Z microscope employs components requiring minimal care by assistants and staff members. New lamp replacement is quick and easy, especially during procedures. Traditional fuses have been replaced by circuit breakers.
