Warnings and Cautions
CAUTION: To minimize lamp housing temperatures, ontime should not exceed 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.
Infants, aphakes, and persons with diseased eyes are at a greater risk. The risk is also increased if the examined person has had any exposure with the same instrument or any other ophthalmic instrument using a visible light source within the previous 24 hours. This will apply particularly if the eye has had exposure to retinal photography. The intended use of this device is for routine ophthalmic exams on the order of typically less than 60 seconds per eye.
Although there is a benefit versus risk factor in any medical procedure, these more complicated exams should not exceed a three minute exam time in 24 hours. Significant use of this device beyond its intended use is not recommended; it may cause harm to the eyes.
Use only PanOptic Patient Eyecups (part number 118092) with this product.
CAUTION: Federal Law restricts this device to sale by or order of a physician.
CAUTION: Spectrally weighted photochemical radiance L
B and L
A
give a measure of the potential hazard that exists for a beam of light to cause photochemical damage to the retina.
L
B
gives the measure for eyes in which a crystalline lens is not in place. L
A
gives this measure either for eyes in which the crystalline lens has been removed (aphakes) and has not been replaced by a UV-blocking lens or for the eyes of very young children.

The value stated for this ophthalmoscope gives a measure of hazard potential when the instrument is operated at maximum intensity and maximum aperture. Values of L
B are considered high.

over 684mW/(cm
2
*sr)
The retinal exposure dose for a photochemical hazard is a product of the radiance and the exposure time. For instance, at a radiance level of 684mW/(cm
2
*sr), a 3-minute exposure would produce a retinal exposure dose level at the recommended limit. If the value of radiance were reduced to 342mW/(cm
2
*sr), twice that time (i.e. 6 minutes) is needed to reach the recommended limit. The recommended exposure dose is based on calculations using the
American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists
(ACGIH) Threshold Limit Values for Chemical Substances and
Physical Agents (1995-1996 Edition).
The 118 Series Ophthalmoscope has spectrally weighted photochemical radiances at maximum intensity and maximum aperture of .281 W/(cm
2
*sr) for L

and .300 W/
(cm

The
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 PanOptic Ophthalmoscope may show disease of the eye itself or may reveal abnormalities indicative of disease elsewhere in the body.
Among the most important of these are vascular changes due to diabetes or hypertension and swelling of the optic nerve head due to papilledema or optic neuritis. In this sense, the eye serves as a window through which many valuable clinical evaluations may be made.
When a preliminary diagnosis of an imminently dangerous eye condition, such as acute (angle-closure) glaucoma or retinal detachment, is made by the examiner, prompt referral to an eye specialist may prevent irreversible damage. Or, when distressing but less urgent conditions, such as visual impairment due to cataract or vitreous floaters, are recognized, the patient can be reassured and referred.

Conducting an Examination with the
PanOptic
Ophthalmoscope
1.
To examine the right eye, stand or sit to the patient’s right side.
2.
Remove Spectacles (preferred, but not required).
3.
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. (This procedure will make any adjustments for your own eye’s corrective needs.)
4.
Start with the small aperture
(green line position on the aperture dial).
7
5.
Turn the scope on (using any
Welch Allyn 3.5V power source). Adjust light intensity rheostat to desired position.
You are now ready to begin the examination:
6.
Examiner should be positioned approximately 15 degrees to the temporal side of the patient.
7.
Instruct the patient to look straight ahead at a distant object.
8.
Begin from about 6 inches away, looking through the scope and shining the light at the patient’s eye while looking for the red retinal reflex.
9.
Rest your left hand on the patient’s forehead. (optional)
8
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.
Note: For the largest view, compress the eyecup halfway against the patient’s brow. This enables the user to view the entire optic disc plus many surrounding vessels (about
25° field of view) at one time.
9
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. You may also have the patient look at the light of the ophthalmoscope, which will automatically place the macula in full view. Examine for abnormalities in the macular area. The red-free filter facilitates viewing of the center of the macula, or the fovea.
13. To examine the extreme periphery instruct the patient to:
A look up for examination of the superior retina
B look down for examination of the inferior retina
C look temporally for examination of the temporal retina
D look nasally for examination of the nasal retina.
This routine will reveal almost any abnormality that occurs in the fundus.
10
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. This permits those who are strongly dominant in one eye to always use that eye in the fundus exam.
11
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).
1.
Small Aperture: Provides easy view of the fundus through an undilated pupil. Always start the examination with this aperture and proceed to micro aperture if pupil is particularly small and/or sensitive to light. This position is the “Home” position on the aperture dial and is denoted by the green marking.
2.
Large Aperture: Standard aperture for dilated pupil examination of the eye.
3.
Micro Spot Aperture: Allows easy entry in very small, undilated pupils.
4.
Slit Aperture (Models 11810, 11820 only): Helpful in determining various elevations of lesions, particularly tumors and edematous discs.
5.
Red-Free Filter (Model 11810, 11820 only): This filter excludes red rays from the examination field: this is superior to ordinary light in viewing slight alterations in vessels, minute retinal hemorrhages, ill-defined exudates and obscure changes in the macula. The nerve fibers become visible and the observer may note the disappearance of such fibers, as in optic nerve atrophy. The background appears gray, the disc appears white, the macula appears yellow, the fundus reflex is intense and the vessels appear almost black. This filter is also used to help distinguish veins from arteries; veins stay
12
relatively blue, but oxygenated arterial blood makes arteries appear blacker. This greater contrast makes differentiation easier for the examiner.
6.
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. In this way, it can be used as a surrogate to a
Woods Light.
7.
Half-Moon Aperture (11810 Only): Provides a combination of depth perception and field-of view.
13
The Eye
In addition to examination of the fundus, the PanOptic Ophthalmoscope 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.
The practitioner can also easily detect lens opacities by looking at the pupil through an add-on corneal viewing lens. In the same manner, vitreous opacities can be detected by having the patient look up and down, to the right and to the left. Any vitreous opacities will be seen moving across the pupillary area as the eye changes position or comes back to the primary position.
