Microscope used in eye examination that projects a thin, intense beam of light into the eye through a controlled diaphragm. Used in examination of interior eye segment from the cornea epithelium to the posterior capsule. Aids in the diagnosis of diseases or trauma which affect the structural properties of the anterior eye segment. See General Eye Examination in Eye Care Encyclopedia. See Free Eye Tests.
a high-power microscope that eye care personnel use to examine eye structures.
A microscope using various magnifications combined with a strong light that can be focused into a slit for examining the eye.
an instrument with a light source that is focused into a slit for use, in combination with a biomicroscope, in examining the frontal structures of the eye.
a high-intensity light that can be focused to shine as a slit when used with the biomicroscope (an optical instrument that is like a microscope)
a microscope with a light source and magnifies the structures of the eye for the examiner
an instrument that enables a doctor to examine the entire eye under high magnification
a type of microscope with attached lighting that provides a magnified view of eye structures such as the clear front surface (cornea) and the colored portion (iris)
A slit beam of light and a horizontally mounted microscope that allows detailed examination of the eye.
A biomicroscope used in the diagnosis of eye conditions.
instrument at which patient sits for eye examination
microscope used for examining the eye; allows cornea, lens and otherwise clear fluids and membranes to be seen in layer-by-layer detail.
An instrument used by eye specialists (opthalmologists) to look for inflammation or other diseases inside the eye.
Table-top microscope for examining the eye.
Microscope designed for thorough examination of the eye, including the cornea, the lens, and the retina.
A microscope that projects a linear slit beam of light onto the eye; allows viewing of the conjunctiva, cornea, iris, aqueous humor, lens, and eyelid.
a table top microscope used to look inside the eye and evaluate the health of the eye
a microscope with a light attached that allows the doctor to examine your eyes under high magnification. This instrument is usually used to view the front structures of the eye such as the cornea, iris, and lens, however, with special lenses, it's possible to examine the back of the eye as well. The instrument's name comes from its adjustable light beam. By changing the width of the beam, the doctor can gather important detail about each eye structure.
A lamp that provides a narrow beam of strong light; often used with a conreal microscope for examination of the front portions of the eye.
The slit lamp is an instrument consisting of a high-intensity light source that can be focused to shine as a slit. It is used in conjunction with a microscope. The lamp facilitates an examination which looks at anterior segment, or frontal structures, of the human eye, which includes the eyelid, sclera, conjunctiva, iris, natural crystalline lens, and cornea.
