3.The number above the apertures: F14, F16,
F18, F21, F25, F30 indicate the aperture size.
The larger the number, the smaller the
aperture. When the light is insufficient, a
large aperture is required to ensure the
brightness of the picture, apply to the
condition such as observing the cornea with
slit light. Use a small aperture for greater
depth of field when there is plenty of light,
apply to the condition such as use a large spot
to observe the eye (see Figure 3.5.4).
4.The background light source module
provides additional illumination for
observing, improving the quality of digital
photography. The background light source
has two kinds of LED light source and
infrared light source.
3.6 Operation notes
1． During the operation, the operator should
first understand the contents of the
instruction manual and master the
structure and function of the slit lamp
microscope. It is necessary for proper
operation and diagnosis.
2． During the use of the operator, the
different scales and different indication
marks corresponding to the various
knobs at different positions should be
observed clearly, to prevent unnecessary
misjudgments during observations.
3． The operator should adjust the pupil
distance and the vision before observing
the microscope during the operation. If
the distance and vision are incorrect,
there may be a feeling of dizziness.
4． The operator may have a feeling of
dizziness if using microscope for a long
time during the operation. Please adjust
the observation time according to your
personal situation.
5．When the patient is diagnosed with a slit
lamp microscope, a beam of slit light is
applied to the eye. If the slit light is too
dark, it will affect the observation. If the
slit light is too strong, and the
observation last too long, it may affect
the patient's vision. If the patient feels
uncomfortable, please inform the
operator or actively seek medical
attention. Try to avoid illuminating the
patient's eyes for a long time under
strong light.
