The PRISMVUE loupes are prismatic loupes incorporating PENTAX's unique deflection prisms and offer the surgeon with bright magnified view of the operation field while maintaining upright posture and facing forward.
It prevents the user from needing to hunching their neck and back forward.
Features of PRISMVUE NF2
Our Unique Optical Prism Design
Uniquely designed PENTAX deflection prisms*1 allows viewing below the level of direct site, enhances vision and makes it easier to identify small structures in best working posture.
Comfortable surgery is possible without blocking the light of the lighting lamp.
*1 High end deflection prisms [48 degrees]
Bright and wide field of view
PENTAX's unique and sophisticated design provides a bright and wide field of view.
The upright posture facing forward during operation prevents the user's head from interfering with the surgical lights and ensures a bright field of view at all times.
Field width: The field of view is larger by 20 to 30% than
that obtained with conventional products.
Reducing eye fatigue and cervical strain
The convergence (*Note) provided by the optical system allows stress-free parallel viewing at all times.
This reduces the eye fatigue and cervical strain.
*Note: Convergence is the eyes' turning inward towards the nose when we view objects with both eyes.
Easy shifting between magnified and actual-size views
Our loupes allows the user to switch easily between magnified and actual size view by just moving the head and only from the movement of the eyes. This allows stabilization of the magnified viewing position.
*High-refractive-index aspherical lenses are incorporated in eyeglasses for Type L.
