Description

The Volk 2.2 Pan Retinal Lens is an advanced diagnostic tool designed for ophthalmic professionals seeking precision in indirect retinal examination. This non-contact lens is engineered to provide exceptional imaging for both the retinal periphery and posterior pole, making it an invaluable asset for general diagnosis and treatment planning.

Key Features

• Double Aspheric Glass Optics: The patented design enhances image clarity, offering a balanced magnification and field of view that is particularly beneficial for detecting peripheral retinal conditions such as tears and hemorrhages.
• Small Pupil Optimization: Its design is optimized for use through small pupils, ensuring comprehensive examination capabilities without the need for pupil dilation.

Technical Specifications

• Field of View: 56° (static) / 73° (dynamic)
• Image Magnification: 2.68x
• Laser Spot Magnification: 0.37x
• Working Distance: 40 mm

Design and Usability

The lens's slightly larger size and longer working distance compared to a 20D lens make it popular among new ophthalmology residents. It accommodates users with varying hand sizes and offers an easy transition for those familiar with the 20D lens, providing a wider field of view with slightly less magnification.

Color Options and Customization

Available in a variety of colors including Black, Blue, Green, Gold, Purple, Red, Silver, Champagne Gold, and Multicolor, the lens can be personalized with optional engraving. This customization allows for up to 14 characters on the lens and 17 characters on the lens case.

Accessories

Each lens comes with a complimentary single-lens case, with optional custom engraving to enhance personalization.

Cleaning and Sterilization

Proper maintenance involves cleaning with a mild, pH-neutral detergent and a soft, lint-free cotton cloth. Disinfection can be achieved using high-level disinfectants or immersion in sodium hypochlorite solution. When necessary, sterilization can be performed using various methods such as Ethylene Oxide, Steam, Sterrad®, V-Pro®, and Sterizone VP4, with the use of Volk Sterilization Cases recommended to prevent damage.

Storage and Care

Store the lens in a clean, dry environment at room temperature after thorough cleaning and drying. Avoid exposure to disinfectants beyond recommended levels to prevent degradation. Note that ring color may fade with repeated reprocessing, though this is purely cosmetic.

Warnings

Ensure the lens is not used if damaged and avoid sterilizing with incompatible cases. Discoloration of colored rings due to certain chemicals does not impact functionality.

The Volk 2.2 Pan Retinal Lens stands out as a reliable, customizable, and highly effective tool for eye care professionals, enhancing diagnostic capabilities with its superior optical performance and versatile design.
