Welcome to your User Guide. This guide covers the P200T family of products.
Note
In this guide the term P200T is used when referring to all product variants, unless otherwise stated.
2.1 Device description
This confocal scanning laser ophthalmoscope is a ultra-widefield digital imaging device capable of capturing
the area from the central pole to the far periphery of the retina. The retinal images are captured in an
automated, patient friendly way without scleral depression or contact with the cornea.
The device uses red and green lasers to produce a digital, high-resolution image, which is displayed on a PC
monitor screen.
Ultra-widefield Confocal Scanning Laser Ophthalmoscope (SLO) fundus imaging is achieved using red and
green lasers. These laser wavelengths penetrate the retinal structures to different depths. Each wavelength
provides information for interpretation and diagnosis.
In autofluorescence mode, the device captures
opto

af
images using the green laser to illuminate the
eye. This allows an image of the natural fluorescence of the eye to be captured. Fluorescent dye is not
introduced into the patient when performing autofluorescence imaging.
Optos’ technology is designed to operate through a minimum pupil diameter of 2 mm. Although pupil dilation
is
NOT
required, the decision to dilate is a medical decision to be made by the eyecare professional.
Images are captured on the scan head and then viewed, magnified, annotated and separated into their
components in the review software.
Note
Depending on the features available on your device, you may have a subset of the features described in
this user guide.
2.2 Intended use
The P200T scanning laser ophthalmoscope is intended to be used as a widefield and retinal autofluorescence
imaging ophthalmoscope to aid in the diagnosis and monitoring of diseases or disorders that manifest in the
retina.
2.3 Intended users
The device is intended for professional use only. Users
MUST
have knowledge of basic eye anatomy and
experience in operating ophthalmic imaging and diagnostic devices.
The system prevents the operator altering laser power or exposure times, therefore no specific pre-requisite
training is required prior to receiving Optos training. The review of images, as an assist to diagnosis, may only
be conducted by a healthcare professional qualified in optometry or ophthalmology.
