Thanks to the bright red reflex illumination, the red reflex can be seen extremely clearly.

Even during ultrasonic phacoemulsification and aspiration (PEA), which can weaken the red reflex illumination, the lens can be seen clearly due to the bright red reflex illumination.

Sufficient red reflex illumination can also be obtained for small pupils. In addition, bright and stable red reflex illumination can always be obtained, even when the direction of the eye changes.

Using red reflex illumination alone produces high contrast, resulting in enhanced images of the lens.

Using the main illumination and red reflex illumination simultaneously and controlling their distribution enhances the stereoscopics appearance of the image.

The illumination is shone and observed along the same path as the optical axis, resulting in efficient return of reflected light from the fundus and ensuring bright and stable red reflex.

User-friendly design supports smooth surgical operations

The focus, motorised zoom, X-Y speed adjustment, light intensity adjustment and power switches are all integrated into the control panel to make operations more efficient.

The light intensity can be adjusted using either the foot controller or the control panel, allowing an assistant to operate it directly from the panel as well.
The individual light intensity values of the main illumination and red reflex illumination are displayed on the panel to enable smooth adjustments.

Customisable foot controller for comfortable control

The pedal position can be freely customised to create the optimal layout for the surgeon’s preference. High water and dust resistance (IPX6) provides peace of mind even in operating rooms subject to splashing fluids.

Safety stopper

The stopper limits the lowest position of the arm according to the height of the operating table. This reduces the risk of contact with the patient.

Ergonomic design

The angle of the binocular tubes can be adjusted up to 90 degrees, allowing the surgeon to keep a comfortable posture and maintain concentration for a long time.

The red reflex illumination is designed to efficiently capture light reflected from the fundus, enhancing visibility during surgery. It provides stable red reflex illumination even during procedures where red reflex is difficult to obtain—such as ultrasonic　phacoemulsification and aspiration (PEA) or surgeries involving small pupils.

Using both the main and red reflex illumination together helps create a stereoscopic surgical view, while using red reflex illumination alone enhances the contrast of the lens. The system offers illumination optimized for visibility under a variety of surgical conditions.

The main illumination uses a high-luminance LED, supporting surgical observation with excellent contrast and colour　reproduction.

Additionally, the red reflex illumination mechanism can be retracted using the ON/OFF knob, allowing retinal vitreous surgeries to be performed using the system’s inherently bright optical system.

The main and red reflex illumination lights each use independent LED light sources, allowing individual brightness adjustments based on the condition of the surgical eye and the surgeon’s preference. Brightness levels for each illumination can be easily monitored and adjusted via numerical indicators on the control panel, enabling easy setting of intensity and balance.

This system allows the surgeon to enhance visibility in the surgical field and flexibly control contrast and reflections according to the situation. Its flexibility and operability provides a more comfortable and efficient surgical environment suited to a variety of cases.

The OM-19 is equipped with filters that take into account the effects of heat and wavelength characteristics. The heat-absorbing filter efficiently absorbs infrared light to reduce thermal load during operation. The retina shield filter minimizes light exposure to the retina while maintaining clear visibility of the surgical field. Blue cut and blue collection filters properly control blue light to create an eye-friendly illumination environment.

These filters support both sustained observation accuracy and reduced strain on the eye during operation.

The optical design supports use in retinal vitrectomy surgeries, and by attaching a wide-angle fundus observation device (sold separately), intraoperative observation is enabled. It is compatible with OCULUS’ BIOM, allowing selection according to the surgical procedure (*simultaneous use with the O06-29SE　Coaxial Binocular Microscope is not possible when the BIOM is attached).

Additionally, the red reflex illumination mechanism can be retracted using the ON/OFF knob, allowing retinal vitreous surgeries to be performed using the system’s inherently bright optical system.

A large-diameter objective lens ensures a wide field of view and brightness, making the optical design suitable not only for cataract surgery but also for retinal vitreous surgery.

The optical system from the eyepiece to the objective lens incorporates design features to suppress chromatic aberration, delivering a bright and sharp image with deep depth of focus.

The eyepieces feature high-eyepoint design lenses, supporting comfortable visibility during surgery.

The foot controller features control functions such as switching the main and red reflex illumination on/off and illumination control, as well as adjusting the focus, zoom, and X-Y directions. Additionally, the pedal layout can be customised to suit the surgeon’s preference, enhancing ease of use.

The O06-29SE Coaxial Binocular Microscope provides a bright, wide field of view with deep depth of focus and a strong sense of stereopsis. It is also equipped with an independent focus adjustment function, offering optimal visibility for the assistant.

The O11-02 and O11-03 Beam Splitters and the O08-11 Camera Adapter enable video recording, supporting visualisation and documentation of information.

The O06-29 Monitor Arm integrates the LCD monitor with the operating microscope, and the O06-30 safety-designed Camera Control Rack creates a comfortable surgical environment.

A microscope head tilt mechanism suitable for glaucoma surgery is included, offering a wide range of motion of ±30°. The handle-based design allows quick and intuitive operation, enabling adjustment to the desired viewing angle.

This helps reduce the burden on the surgeon and contributes to a stable surgical environment.
