1. INDICATIONS FOR USE
This device is intended to be used only by suitably trained and authorised healthcare
professionals.
CAUTION: Federal Law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a
physician or practitioner.
Intended use / purpose of instrument
The Keeler Slit Lamp facilitates an examination of the anterior segment, or frontal structures
and posterior segment, of the human eye, which includes the eyelid, sclera, conjunctiva, iris,
natural crystalline lens and cornea. The binocular slit-lamp provides stereoscopic magnifi ed
view of the eye structures in detail, enabling anatomical diagnoses to be made for a variety of
eye conditions.
Brief description of the instrument
This Keeler Slit Lamp can either be mounted onto a custom table top supplied by Keeler or can
be mounted on a third parties table top (refraction unit) by suitably trained technicians.
The Keeler Slit Lamp consists of 5 assemblies; illumination tower; observation system; XYZ
translation base; chinrest assembly and a table top with power supply and accessory drawer.
The light intensity is controlled by a variable rheostat located on the XYZ translation base.
There are a number of selectable fi lters allowing the user to control the characteristics of the
examination light.
2. SAFETY
2.1 PHOTOTOXICITY
CAUTION: The light emitted from this instrument is potentially hazardous.
The longer the duration of exposure, the greater the risk of ocular
damage. Exposure to light from this instrument when operated at
maximum intensity will exceed the safety guideline after 81 seconds.
While no acute optical radiation hazards have been identifi ed for slit
lamps, we recommend keeping the intensity of the light reaching the
patient’s retina to the minimum possible for the respective diagnosis.
Children, people with aphakia and people suffering from eye conditions
are most at risk. An increased risk may also occur if the retina is exposed
to the same or a similar device with a visible light source within 24 hours.
This applies, in particular, if the retina has been photographed with a
fl ashbulb in advance.
Keeler Ltd shall on request, provide the user with a graph showing the
relative spectral output of the instrument.
