Haag-Streit UK (HS-UK), the leading manufacturer and distributor of gold-standard diagnostic and surgical devices and instruments for ophthalmologists, optometrists, and orthoptists, has launched the Imaging Module 910 3D (IM 910 3D) in the UK.
To-date, ophthalmologists have been able to document slit lamp images – but only in 2D. The images presented in two dimensions lack depth, which limits the comprehensive visualization of the observed content.
By enhancing the proven capabilities of the Haag-Streit Imaging Module 910 (IM 910) through the addition of a second 4K camera – ophthalmologists can now experience an immersive depth impression, unveiling more detail for a richer viewing experience.
The results have wide-ranging benefits: from clinicians in practice, to ophthalmology teachers.
Documentation
Through the recording of videos and images in 3D, clinicians enjoy a more detailed and authentic representation of the slit lamp exam, making the perception of anatomical relationships easier to identify, thereby enhancing the overall clarity and interpretability of the observed content.
Teaching
Developing slit lamp examination skills is not simply about being able to operate the slit lamp; trainees must also be able to recognize what they are seeing. Traditional methods, such as co-observer tubes, require trainees to hunch over the eyepieces, which can be uncomfortable. By sharing an enhanced 3D digital view between the monitor and the oculars, ophthalmology teachers can be sure that residents have observed the relevant details. This creates a modern, comfortable, and collaborative teaching environment.
“We are thrilled to launch the new 3D feature for the IM 910,” says Haag-Streit’s Frank Wenger, Head of Product Management General Diagnostics. “This innovation offers a completely new experience in teaching."
