Japanese firm says it sets new standards in biomicroscopy

A Japanese imaging device manufacturer that has produced parts for Nikon’s range of Zoom slit lamps, has made the first foray in the ophthalmic instrument market under its own name.

Righton said its new MW50D LED slit lamp set new standards in biomicroscopy through quality optics. Magnification of 50x and wide fields of view, (5x (ø44.4), 10x (ø22.3), 16x (ø14.2), 25x (ø9.0) and 50x (ø4.5)) were both claimed to be the highest on the market. The widest slit width available continuously at 1-16mm compliments the wide field of view.

New multi-anti-reflection coated optics allow 22% higher transmittance than previous models and the LED light source has been carefully selected to replicate halogen and eliminate the blueish light experienced with LEDs.
