4. Safety
Safety considerations
It is well established that exposure of the eye to intense light
sources for extended periods of time poses a risk of retinal
photic injury. Many ophthalmic instruments illuminate the eye
with intense light. The decision about the intensity of the light
level to use in any procedure must be made on a case to case
basis. In each case, the clinician must take a risk benefit
judgement about the intensity of light to be used. Use of
insufficient intensity may result in inadequate visualization and
in adverse effects more serious than retinal photic damage.
Further, despite all efforts taken to minimise the risk of retinal
damage, damage may still occur. Retinal photic injury is a
possible complication of the need to use bright light clearly
visualize ocular structure during delicate ophthalmic surgical
procedure.
While no visible retinal lesions have been identified for
ophthalmic instruments, it is recommended that illumination
levels be set to the minimum level necessary to perform the
diagnostic function. Young children and persons with diseased
eyes may be at a higher risk. The risk may also be increased if
the person being examined has had any exposure with the same
instrument or any other ophthalmic instrument using an intense
visible light source during the previous 24 hours. This will apply
particularly if the eye has been exposed to retinal photography.
The light emitted from this instrument is potentially hazardous.
The longer the duration of exposure, the greater the risk of
ocular damage. Exposure to light from this instrument when
operated at maximum intensity will exceed the safety guidelines
after 27 minutes.

3. The nose bridge is fitted by sliding into the slot as shown.
4. As the nose bridge slides
into the slot a sprung catch
will engage with the dimples
on the nose bridge. This is to
allow a range of adjustment
to suit the users requirements.
Please note: Care must be taken not to overtighten
the screws during this process, or the equipment
may be damaged.
5. Once the desired position has been
confirmed this can be locked more

Filter selection control (D)
By sliding the lever (D) in direction of the arrows, different filters
D
C
E
may be selected.
Clear – Select the clear with no filter when inspecting a
specific pathology and a brighter, whiter light is desired.
Green – Red-free filter reduces the red light, so blood will
appear black, silhouetted against a dark background.
Blue – Cobalt blue for fluorescein angioscopy.
Mirror angle control (E)
The light is positioned vertically into the field of view
by rotation of the levers (E) located either side of the
binocular block.
Aperture lever (C)
By sliding the lever (C) in direction of the arrows, the size of
the aperture can be adjusted. Slide to the right to increase
aperture size, to the left to decrease. Refer to the white
dots located on the top of the lever, as per image right.

Interpupillary Distance Setting Control (F)
Because the eyes are dissociated, particular care must
be taken to ensure the optics (eyepieces) are set properly
in front of each eye.
Place an object, perhaps the thumb, approximately 40cm
from the face and centre it horizontally in the light patch.
Then, close one eye. Using the thumb and forefinger of
the opposite hand, slide the P.D.Control (F) of the open
eye (located directly under each eyepiece) so that your
object moves into the centre of the field, keeping the object
in the centre of the light patch. Repeat for the other eye.

The Keeler Spectra Iris is intended for the use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer
or the user of the Keeler Spectra Iris can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and
mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and the Keeler Spectra Iris as recommended below, according to the maximum output power
of the communications equipment.
