    Slit Lamps

    Slit lamps are sophisticated ophthalmic equipment which are commonly used by ophthalmologists and optometrists to examine the structure of the eye. Slit lamps provide a detailed view of the different parts of the eye conditions. 

    The slit lamp is an ophthalmic equipment used to examine the structures of the eye. It consists of a binocular microscope equipped with a light source that creates a thin, focused beam of light. This beam is split into a slit shape and projected onto the eye, allowing the medical professional to view the various parts of the eye in detail.

    The slit lamp ophthalmic equipment helps in the diagnosis and evaluation of eye conditions such as cataracts, corneal ulcers, glaucoma, macular degeneration, and many others. It can assess the front and back parts of the eye, including the cornea, lens, iris, and retina. By providing a magnified view and adjustable illumination, the slit lamp enables eye care practitioners to make accurate diagnoses and monitor the progression of eye diseases.
