Ergonomic controls for all slit-lamp functions, including magnification, light filters and a stop brake for movement, are all within easy reach of one hand – meaning you’ll never have to put down your lens or let go of the joystick during patient exams. Carl Zeiss Meditech’s new SL 800 features state-of-the-art optics using apochromatic ZEISS lenses with anti-reflex coating, providing true-to-life colour and high-contrast images. An integrated LED light source accompanied by a halogen filter provide the advantages of both illumination characteristics. Continuous magnification steps of 6x, 10x, 16x, 25x and 40x show more-detailed structures for enhanced insights. Modular options include the ZEISS SL Imaging Solution, enabling convenient capturing of high-quality images and videos for documentation, patient consultation or presentation. The Fundus VarioView enables increased binocular field of view while examining the posterior segment. For measuring intraocular pressure, the AT 030 applanation tonometer can be easily integrated. The ZEISS SL 800 is a high-end device designed to deliver maximum efficiency and image quality that help ophthalmic surgeons meet growing demand. And the device integrates with seamlessly with other data and image sources through the ZEISS Integrated Data Platform, further enhancing overall practice efficiency. https://www.zeiss.com/
