Slit-lamp beamsplitter for two stereoscopic views.
A double binocular beamsplitter, compatible with Zeiss optics, splits the light from each optical train of a slip-lamp microscope to provide an observer the exact stereoscopic view of the examiner. It has advantages in teaching slit-lamp examination techniques. Further, in surgery at the slit lamp, it allows the observer to function as an assistant and the surgeon to have both hands free.
