The Sum of
50 Years of Knowledge
“
OPMI Pentero, the new microscope of Carl Zeiss has
exceeded all my expectations. The motorized X/Y move-
ment; increased headroom; single-lever pistol grip
movement; completely internalized video, cameras, and
cables; elimination of the drape bulk with a vacuum
system; single-button autobalance; and unparalleled
binocular vision with superb lighting make this highly
integrated microscope system the most important tool
for the practice of neurosurgery.

For more than 50 years, Carl Zeiss surgical
microscopes have been delivering excellence
to the world’s most challenging professions.
Surgeons’ needs have been the driving force
behind our quest to provide ever more refined,
more multifunctional systems.
An OPMI is no longer just at the center of the
microsurgical procedure, it is now an information
and communication cockpit; not only the window
to the operating field, but also a gateway to the
outside world.
But how can a sophisticated, high-tech surgical
microscope assist in simplifying very complex
surgical procedures?
OPMI Pentero is the answer.
