Volk H-R Wide Field Lens for Laser and Diagnostic Work
High resolution lens allows visualization of details approaching the ora serrata
Mentor, Ohio (May 14, 2008) – Volk Optical, the leader in aspheric optics, has released the H-R Wide Field Laser Lens, a new pan retinal lens for diagnosis and laser treatment. Its high resolution imaging, coupled with an extremely wide field capability, provides detailed views for diagnostic and laser work.
The H-R Wide Field’s deep field of view reveals details as far out as the ora serrata and most importantly, is distortion free across the entire viewing area. The combination of Volk’s patented double aspheric glass design with low dispersion™ glass ensures the highest resolution imaging across the entire viewing field.
This superior viewing power is contained in a low-profile, reduced-size housing to simplify manipulation of the lens within the orbit. The H-R Wide Field has been compared favorably to the popular discontinued Rodenstock Pan Fundus Laser lens, with an even wider field of view and better image quality.
The lens provides a .50x magnification, and a 2.0x laser spot magnification and is the best choice for widest field diagnosis and PRP laser treatment. While the H-R Wide Field is a contact lens, requiring the added step of a coupling solution to the examination, it ensures clear visualization of retinal tears or lesions across the entire retinal surface. No non-contact lens exam method is able to achieve this level of image clarity and detail.
