Two new microscopes developed for ophthalmic surgery are equipped with stereo coaxial illumination technology (SCITM). The result is a new quality of red reflex: high-contrast, stable, with excellent detail recognition.

During the surgery, different tissues can be easily recognized and removed--even when thick cataracts are present. SCITM is intuitively operated on a control element. Called the OPMI Lumera and OPMI Lumera, the microscopes are manufactured by Carl Zeiss (Oberkochen, Germany). They are suitable for all types of ophthalmic procedures, including posterior segment surgery. Their special features include: DeepView, the depth-of-field management system, which enables surgeons to further optimize the system for depth of field or light transmission; apochromatic optics to achieve a high-contrast image; a retinal protection device to protect the patient’s eyes against phototoxic injuries; and a fully automatic halogen bulb change for interruption-free procedures.

The OPMI Lumera T has an optionally integrated video monitor. It can be placed in various positions, enabling all staff to follow the operation. The integrated Superlux Eye xenon light source helps surgeons see the eye in its natural colors. The use of the HaMode filter enables surgeons who prefer halogen to quickly switch to a light spectrum equivalent to halogen. The microscope is equipped with a completely integrated assistant’s microscope, which permits a second surgeon to independently select the focus and magnification.

A wide range of accessories is available for both surgical microscopes. MediLive Trio Eye provides a bright, high-contrast image on the monitor during procedures on the posterior segment of the eye where little light is permitted. If the camera is used for the anterior segment, the video sequences deliver details of the sclera without the blooming effect caused by excessive brightness. The optional inverter tube makes conversions unnecessary when switching between cataract and retina operations. It also allows surgeons to sit upright in a relaxed position as they operate.
