Great little gadget - very operator friendly, intuitive to use, I love that it has blue light + that you have magnifying loop plus light. I find small focal light beam for direct ophthalmoscopy is not reliable enough to look for aqueous flare unfortunately (compared with a direct ophthalmoscope with a Micro aperture - which is how I teach GPs and students to look for aqueous flare). But considering how most vet students are intimidated by the direct ophthalmoscope and don't really understand how to use this, I'd much prefer them to use this device. I'm hoping next thing arclights tackles is some kind of slit beam device.
Fantastic. The delivery was quick and efficient. The product has a great lense so I’m really satisfied.
Really like it.
Excellent product
I'm an optometrist I bought this solely out of shear nosiness. The main advantage is the arclight itself is shockingly small which actually makes it better suited to fitting within the orbit and easier to handle than other models of opthalmoscope, the view is certainly clinically acceptable at the bright LED works extremely well(did test on large pupil). Downsides are that although you can vary the dioptric power it doesn't have as many options as other models, this in all honesty isn't a criticism as your unlikely to need much of the lens ranges anyway and if your patient wears contact lenses this is much of an issue. The light settings are great and the loupe has the perfect level of magnification to see a foreign body or corneal stain and anterior assessment of the crystalline lens which makes it a great accompaniment to a paediatric exam as it is not as intimidating as a Burton lamp, It's honestly a really decent piece of kit for what you pay for, would recommend for optometrists as a "spare pair" and for paediatric exams as it has more functionality than other expensive loupes like the bluminator. If your a Dr who may need to perform opthalmoscopy it's definitely serviceable and I would recommend, that goes for veterinary practice as well although I would probably recommend a panoptic for vets as you get a bigger view when the patient won't sit still(panoptic is also 18x more expensive though so way up how often your doing opthalmoscopy!).
Absolutely solid piece of equipment would recommend
10/10.
