The PanOptic® ophthalmoscope is a portable eye scope with improved optics that allows for non-dilated eye exams. It has a wider field of view and higher magnification, providing better and more reliable eye exams. The exam begins by focusing the optics, adjusting the light source, and examining the fundus anatomy.
A PanOptic® ophthalmoscope is a recently improved portable eye scope with innovative optics that dramatically improve the quality, accuracy, and comfort of eye exams. Ophthalmoscopes are ocular instruments used during an eye exam to see into the eye in order to examine the health of the fundus or inner surface of the eye. The oscilloscope looks for damage to the retina, such as a detached or torn retina, and diseases such as glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy. Most ophthalmoscopes are only able to magnify the anatomy of the eye five to fifteen times. Unlike ordinary ophthalmoscopes, the PanOptic® Ophthalmoscope does not require the eye to be artificially dilated with eye drops to allow sufficient light into the eye to review the anatomy.
The superior optics of the PanOptic® ophthalmoscope allow the light source to be condensed into a narrow beam as it passes through the undilated pupil, then the light beam expands to brightly illuminate a large area at the back of the eye. A revolutionary feature of the PanOptic® ophthalmoscope is that it improved existing optical technology by allowing eye exams to be performed on non-dilated eyes. The wide expansion of the PanOptic® ophthalmoscope’s light beam also allows a larger area of the eye to be viewed simultaneously, providing superior examination of the inside of the eye. Additionally, the PanOptic® Ophthalmoscope has 25% greater magnification power than standard ophthalmoscopes, allowing the clinician to observe the finest details. The wider field of view and higher magnification produce better and more reliable eye exams.
An eye exam with a PanOptic® ophthalmoscope begins by removing the patient’s glasses, if necessary. The medical instrument is then prepared by focusing the optics on an object about 10 feet (about 3 meters) away, setting the aperture or aperture for the light source, and adjusting the intensity of the light source. After instructing the patient to look straight ahead and remain still, the clinician places the rubber eyepiece of the PanOptic® Ophthalmoscope over one of the patient’s eyes, ensuring that both the patient and the medical instrument are steady. The ophthalmoscope eyepiece is slightly compressed until the optics are optimized and the entire fundus can be seen. Then, the doctor carefully examines the fundus anatomy to look for any problems or abnormalities, and when the first eye exam is finished, the other eye is then examined.
