5.1 Function of the BIOM® 5
The BIOM® 5 is used in conjunction with an SDI® (Stereoscopic Diagonal
Inverter) to erect the image for non-contact, wide-angle observation of the
fundus and vitreous body.
The combination of surgical microscope and the optical components of the
BIOM® 5 allows examination of the vitreous chamber under stereoscopic

out corneal contact during the surgery.
