Description

The Gonio 3-Mirror Lens by Volk is a specialized diagnostic tool used in ophthalmology for detailed visualization of the anterior chamber angle and peripheral retina • The 3-mirror lens provides a clear and magnified view of structures in the eye, including the anterior chamber angle, posterior pole, and retinal periphery, which are difficult to visualize using standard direct ophthalmoscopy. • It is a preferred tool for gonioscopy, enabling effective examination of the trabecular meshwork and other angle structures critical in diagnosing and managing glaucoma Key Features 1. Three Distinct Mirrors: • Rectangular Mirror (73° inclination): For viewing the peripheral retina and pars plana. • Trapezoidal Mirror (66° inclination): Provides a view of the mid-peripheral retina. • D-Shaped Mirror (59° inclination): Optimized for anterior chamber angle examination during gonioscopy. 2. High-Quality Optics: • Manufactured with superior glass and coatings for clear, distortion-free imaging. • Anti-reflective coatings minimize glare and light loss. 3. Material and Durability: • Made from high-grade materials, ensuring longevity and resistance to frequent cleaning and sterilization. • Lightweight design reduces strain during prolonged use. 4. Ergonomic Handle and Design: • Compact and user-friendly design facilitates stable handling for precise examinations. 5. Use with Contact Gel: • Requires a coupling agent (e.g., glycerin or hydroxypropyl methylcellulose gel) to eliminate air gaps between the lens and cornea. 6. Sterilization Compatibility: • Autoclavable or compatible with chemical sterilization methods, making it suitable for sterile clinical settings. Applications • Gonioscopy for glaucoma assessment. • Examination of retinal periphery for tears, detachments, and lattice degeneration. • Post-operative monitoring of peripheral retina and angle structures. • Use during laser procedures, such as laser peripheral iridotomy (LPI) or argon laser trabeculoplasty (ALT). Specifications • Lens Type: Gonio 3-Mirror Contact Lens • Field of View: Comprehensive visualization based on specific mirror angles. • Magnification: Standard magnification for high-detail views. • Working Distance: Designed to provide close contact with the corneal surface.
