    2 minutes with off-time not less than 10 minutes. CAUTION: No acute optical radiation hazards are identified for ophthalmoscopes. However, Welch Allyn recommends limiting the intensity of the light directed into the patient’s eye to the minimum level that is necessary for diagnosis.
  • Page 7 The 118 Series Ophthalmoscope has spectrally weighted photochemical radiances at maximum intensity and maximum aperture of .287 mW/(cm *sr) for L and.306 mW/(cm *sr) for L (aphake). The relative spectral output of the device is shown on page 3. Welch Allyn 118 Series Ophthalmoscope Wavelength (nm)

  • Page 8: The Panoptic ™ Ophthalmoscope

    PanOptic ™ Ophthalmoscope Transparency of the cornea, lens and vitreous humor permits the practitioner to directly view arteries, veins, and the optic nerve of the retina. Direct observation of the structures of the fundus through a PanOp- tic Ophthalmoscope may show disease of the eye itself or may reveal abnormalities indicative of disease elsewhere in the body.

  • Page 9: Set-Up Instructions

    PanOptic Attaching the Ophthalmoscope head to a Welch Allyn Power Source Align cutouts in the PanOptic Ophthalmoscope base with lugs on power source. (The PanOptic Ophthalmoscope fits all 3.5v Welch Allyn power sources.) Push in slightly and turn 90 degrees.
  • Page 10 PanOptic Attaching Corneal Viewing Lens to (Model 11820 only) Insert Corneal Viewing Lens into patient’s side of the instrument. Push and twist in one motion until you feel the two “lock” together as shown on page 5, except replacing Patient Eyecup with the Cor- neal Viewing Lens.

  • Page 11: Conducting An Examination With The Panoptic

    PanOptic Conducting an Examination with the Ophthalmoscope To examine the right eye, stand or sit to the patient’s right side. Remove Spectacles (preferred, but not required). Look through the scope (from the doctor’s side) with your thumb on the focusing wheel. Focus the scope on an object roughly 15 feet away.
  • Page 12 Turn the scope on (using any Welch Allyn 3.5V power source). Adjust light intensity rheostat to maximum position. You are now ready to begin the examination: Examiner should be positioned approximately 15 degrees to the temporal side of the patient.
  • Page 13 10. Slowly follow the red reflex toward the patient and into the pupil. Get as close as possible for the optimum view (the eyecup should contact the patient’s brow). 11. Once you have a stable view of the fundus rotate the focusing wheel until you have a crisp view of the optic disc and the vessels surrounding it.
  • Page 14 12. Examine the optic disc for clarity of outline, color, elevation and condition of the vessels. Follow each vessel as far to the periphery as you can. To locate the macula, focus on the disc, then move the light approximately one (1) disc diameter temporally.
  • Page 15 14. To examine the left eye, repeat the procedure outlined above. However, unlike traditional ophthalmoscopy, a unique feature of PanOptic is that the examiner does not have to switch to his/her left eye. The practitioner can use either eye to examine either patient eye because of the greater working distance between patient and practitioner.

  • Page 16: Apertures And Filters

    Apertures and Filters There is a wide range of practical apertures and filters to select from: small spot, large spot, micro spot, slit aperture, red-free filter, cobalt blue filter (optional), and half-moon aperture (optional). Small Aperture: Provides easy view of the fundus through an undilated pupil.
  • Page 17 relatively blue, but oxygenated arterial blood makes arteries appear blacker. This greater contrast makes differentiation easier for the examiner. Cobalt Blue Filter (Model 11820 only): In conjunction with fluorescein dye applied topically to the cornea and an add-on magnifying lens (included), this filter is helpful in detecting corneal abrasions and foreign bodies.

  • Page 18: The Eye

    The Eye In addition to examination of the fundus, the PanOptic Ophthalmo- scope is a useful diagnostic aid in studying other ocular structures. The light beam can be used to illuminate the cornea and the iris for detecting foreign bodies in the cornea and irregularities of the pupil.
