The Keeler All Pupil II is an indirect ophthalmoscope designed for examining the cornea, aqueous, lens, vitreous, and retina of the eye. It is an AC or battery-powered device containing illumination and viewing optics, intended for use by suitably trained and authorized healthcare professionals. The device is head-mounted for user convenience.
Function Description
The All Pupil II allows for a comprehensive examination of the ocular fundus. While it can be used through an undilated pupil, pupillary dilation using mydriatics is recommended for a wider field of view and better magnification. For a more peripheral view of the retina, scleral indentation can be performed as an adjunct. The device features a Filter Selector Bar (M) with three selectable filters:
- Red-free filter: Increases contrast for assessing changes in fine vessels, such as retinal hemorrhages.
- Cobalt Blue filter: Used with fluorescein dye for detecting and examining corneal scars and abrasions.
- Diffuser: Provides an extra-wide beam of diffused light for a more relaxed technique during challenging fundus examinations.
The instrument also provides protection from UV/IR radiation.

Usage Features
Headband Adjustment:
- Headband Size Adjuster (A) and Height Adjuster (B): For comfortable fit.
- Brow Bar (I) and Brow Bar Adjusters (F): Positions the binocular block (H) on the optical axis.
- Optics Hinge Adjuster (L): Allows positioning the All Pupil II as close to the eyes as possible for maximum field of view.
- Interpupillary Distance Setting Control (J): Located directly under each eyepiece, it adjusts the optics to ensure proper alignment for each eye, centering the object in the field of view while keeping it in the light patch. This should be done with the Aperture Control Lever (D) set to the large light patch.
Illumination and Viewing:
- Mirror Angle Control (K): Rotates the spindle on either side of the Binocular Block to position the light vertically into the upper two-thirds of the field of view.
- Headband Dimmer Switch (E): Rotated clockwise to turn on illumination.
- Aperture Control Lever (D): Changes aperture size for viewing through large, medium, and small pupils.
- Large: Round, homogenous patch suitable for routine examinations through fully dilated pupils.
- Intermediate: Reduces reflections when entering a partially or poorly dilated pupil (3mm), ideal for closer inspection of particular fundal areas.
- Small: Ideal for small, undilated pupils.
- Plano Lenses: Supplied with +2D lenses as standard; plano lenses are also available.
