Leica | Proveo 8 surgical microscope Leica's new surgical microscope offers 4 optical pathways, so the physician doesn't need to share light with his assistant, who also enjoys a full stereo view of the action. The light source is coax 4 illumination; 4 LED lights provide consistent red reflex throughout the whole case. The red reflux remains strong because the light is entering the eye at various angles. That's a valuable feature when the phaco tip is in the eye, tilting and moving in different directions. The scope's fusion optics make that enhanced visualization possible. One aperture is smaller to provide better depth of field and one is larg- er to provide optimal resolution. Your brain fuses the images, so you don't realize the difference between the 2 apertures as you're looking through the scope. In addition to providing clearer views of the eye anatomy for safer surgery, this inno- vation could eliminate the need to constantly adjust the optics after setting the correct focus at the beginning of the case.
