Notes on this
Instruction Manual
The BIOM® 5 was manufactured and tested under strict quality criteria. You
have selected a modern and well-engieered product.
The Binocular Indirect Ophthalmo-Microscope, BIOM® 5, is further stage of
development of the BIOM®.
The BIOM® 5 combines an ophthalmoscope with a surgical microscope. It
enables the vitreous cavity to be viewed under stereoscopic conditions with
optimal image quality, with up to 125° non-contact observation of the fundus.
To ensure safe operation, it is essential that you use the device correctly. For
this reason, you should thoroughly familiarize yourself with the contents of
this instruction manual before operating the device. Pay particular attention to the safety instructions.
This operating manual describes the following BIOM® 5- models:
BIOM® 5c and 5cl (long version)
BIOM® 5m and 5ml (long version)
Except for the difference in length, the respective long version is identical with respect to handling and features.
The long versions should be used at microscope focal lengths of
f=200 mm
Due to ongoing development, the diagrams shown in the instruction manual may depict minor changes to the actual device delivered.
If you have any questions or would like additional information about your
device, please do not hesitate to contact us by mail or fax. Our service team
will gladly assist.

5.1 Function of the BIOM® 5
The BIOM® 5 is used in conjunction with an SDI® (Stereoscopic Diagonal
Inverter) to erect the image for non-contact, wide-angle observation of the
fundus and vitreous body.
The combination of surgical microscope and the optical components of the
BIOM® 5 allows examination of the vitreous chamber under stereoscopic
conditions. The BIOM® 5 works as an indirect ophthalmomicroscope without corneal contact during the surgery.

6 Transport and Storage
8 / 40 Instruction Manual BIOM® 5 (G/55400/0413/en)
The patient’s eyeball can be moved freely during the surgery. Peripheral
fundus portions are thus easy to examine. This combined optical system
achieves a fundus view of up to 125° in total.
The optical system of the BIOM® 5 consists of the reduction lens and the
front lens. The reduction lens ensures that the distance between the patient’s eye and the surgical microscope remains more or less the same when
the BIOM® 5 is swiveled in and out. Individually adjusted to the respective
surgical microscope, the microscope objective’s focal distance is reduced.
The position of the reduction lens with respect to the surgical microscope
is preset.
The height adjustment of the front lens is used for focusing the BIOM® image. The distance between the surgical microscope and the front lens is set
using the adjusting wheel at the BIOM® 5.
For BIOM® 5c only:
Press the combination foot switch to focus by means of the electric motor.
This height adjustment of the front lens brings the fundus image into the
focal point of the microscope objective.
As the image is completely reversed when the BIOM® 5 is used, optimal use
is only guaranteed in conjunction with a SDI®. The SDI® rights the complete
image reversal and can be switched on and off as required.
6 Transport and Storage
The following values apply for a period of 6 months at most in the shipping
container.
The transport and storage conditions according to DIN EN ISO 601-1 are:
Attention
Risk of damage to the device due to improper transport and storage
Transport the BIOM® 5 carefully.
Store the BIOM® 5 under proper storage conditions.
An ambient temperature range of -40°C to +70°C
A relative humidity range of 10% to 100%,
including condensation
An air pressure range of 5o kPa to 106 kPa
7 Connect the BIOM® 5c to the SDI® 3c
Instruction Manual BIOM® 5 (G/55400/0413/en) 9 / 40
7Connect the BIOM® 5c to the SDI® 3c
You need an adapter (Art. No. 54406) to connect the BIOM® 5c (4-pole) to
an SDI® 3c (2-pole).
Plug in the unsterile adapter at the 2-pole SDI® housing.
Carefully connect the sterilized plug of the BIOM® 5c to the adapter
plug, taking care to maintain the sterility.
To disconnect after use, take hold of the outer sleeve of the BIOM® 5c
plug and unlock the connection.
For more information, refer to the Instruction Manual for the adapter.
8 Initial Operation
8.1 Prior to Initial Operation
Remove the BIOM® 5 and its accessories from the packaging and dis-
pose of the latter in the proper manner.
Clean, disinfect and sterilize the BIOM® prior to initial use, fig. 12,
page 29.
Assembly and instruction in the use of the BIOM® 5 and its accessories will
be done by an OCULUS employee or by a dealer authorized by OCULUS.
8.2 Prior to Start-Up
An adapter is needed for attachment of the BIOM® 5. Check whether
it adapted to the respective surgical microscope type.
If necessary, extend the adapter.
A part of the mounting fixture generally remains installed at the mi-
croscope.
Clean, disinfect and sterilize the detachable adapter plate for the
BIOM® 5 prior to use, see sect. 12, page 29.
If, however, you do have to remove the mounting fixture for any
reason, proceed as shown on the assembly diagram provided with the
adapter.
Clean, disinfect and sterilize the BIOM® 5 prior to every use, sect. 12,
page 29.
8 Initial Operation
10 / 40 Instruction Manual BIOM® 5 (G/55400/0413/en)
Check and Mount the Dovetail Connections:
First visually check the connection for correct mounting.
Check this by gently rocking the connection before you begin mount-
ing any of the other attachments.
Attention
Risk of injury to the patient if the BIOM® 5 drops.
Loose connections can pose a hazard if you mount the adapter plate incorrectly.
Therefore, after each conversion, check that all retaining elements (e.g.
locking screws) are present and are tight.
