ILLUMINATION

Illumination is of invaluable importance in eye surgery. The choice of the right light source is decisive for achieving high-quality transscleral and intraocular illumination and simultaneously preventing phototoxic impacts and damages to the eye.

The ViPer illuminated scleral indentor is unique in its use 1. Rapidly and easily attached to the endo illuminator, the ViPer simplifies working in the periphery 2 *.

There are many different surgical situations in which chandelier illumination is beneficial for improving intraocular visibility and thereby achieving favourable surgical outcomes. It facilitates clear intraocular visualization and the surgeon can perform manipulations bimanually and efficiently.

Overview of the illumination portfolio

Power LED technology
Thanks to the Power LED light source, the light output is up to 45 per cent greater than the previous generations.

Power LED Plus
The colour spectrum of the second light source, the Power LED Plus, can be individually adjusted. To make even the finest tissue structures visible and to enable high-resolution contrast vision, the colours yellow and blue can be mixed as needed.

Endo illuminator solutions
Glare-free, from panorama and widefield to 90° illumination

ViPer illuminated scleral indentor
