Visionstar HY-001

Ultra Low Electric Height

Powered height runs from 620mm to 820mm, described by the manufacturer as an ultra low design suited to seated work beneath an ophthalmic microscope.

Handheld Controller

One handheld controller is listed in the standard configuration, putting powered height adjustment within reach during a procedure without the surgeon breaking position or asking for assistance.

Manual Head Plate Adjustment

The head plate lifts by hand through 0 to 120mm, so head position can be set independently once the patient is positioned on the couch.

Table Dimensions

The table measures 2180mm in length by 600mm in width, giving a narrow platform that keeps the seated surgeon close to the operating field.

Stainless Steel Construction

The base is 304 stainless steel with a stainless steel housing, which the manufacturer relates to a stable structure and durable metal construction.

Seamless Leather Bedding

Bedding is described as mould formed and seamless in leather, leaving no seam in which fluid or contamination can gather between cases.

Hand Supports for Surgeon and Patient

Two hand support racks for the surgeon and two supports for the patient's hands are listed, alongside one anaesthetic screen, in the standard configuration.

Four Concealed Castors

Four castors are listed as hidden beneath the base, so the table can be repositioned without castors intruding on the low profile of the unit or adding height where none can be spared.

Surgery Under an Ophthalmic Microscope

The manufacturer states the table is suitable for operation under an ophthalmic microscope, and the height range is what makes that claim meaningful. Starting at 620mm brings the patient's head to a level where a seated surgeon can position the microscope correctly and still fit their knees beneath the couch. Cataract and anterior segment work depends on that geometry, because a surgeon who cannot settle comfortably cannot hold the fine position that microsurgery requires across a full list.

Examination and Diagnosis

Suitability for examination and diagnosis is listed alongside surgery. A table that lowers to 620mm is easier for an elderly or unsteady patient to transfer onto, and raising it afterwards brings the patient to a working height without the clinician stooping. For a unit where the same room handles assessment and procedures, one couch covering both avoids moving patients between pieces of furniture.

Supporting the Surgeon's Position

Two hand support racks are supplied for the surgeon. In ophthalmic surgery the operating field is measured in millimetres, and physiological tremor is reduced far more effectively by supporting the wrists than by any effort of will. Two further supports are provided for the patient's hands, which helps a conscious patient under local anaesthetic stay still and comfortable through the procedure.

Turnover and Infection Control

Seamless mould formed bedding and stainless steel surfaces are the two features that matter between cases. There is no seam or crevice in which fluid can lodge, and the surfaces take a wipe down without absorbing anything. In a day case list where several patients pass through the same theatre in a morning, cleaning that is quick and reliable directly determines how many cases the session can hold.

Height Built for the Work

A general purpose theatre table is designed for a standing surgeon working over a torso. Ophthalmic surgery inverts that: a seated surgeon at the head, a microscope in the way and no room for a couch built too tall. An electric range beginning at 620mm addresses the actual constraint rather than approximating it, and the manual head plate then allows a final adjustment of the head alone, which is usually what a surgeon wants to change once everything else is set.

A Configuration That Arrives Complete

Anaesthetic screen, surgeon hand supports, patient hand supports, handheld controller and stainless steel base are all listed as standard rather than offered separately. For a unit fitting out a theatre, that removes a round of decisions and the risk of discovering on the first list that something assumed to be included was not. It also means the accessories were designed for this table rather than adapted to it.

Surfaces That Suit a Theatre

A 304 stainless steel base, stainless steel housing and seamless mould formed bedding together give a table with no fabric to absorb, no seam to trap and no painted finish to chip. In a room where cleaning happens several times a day and the standard is set by infection control rather than appearance, material choice is not a detail but the whole basis on which furniture is judged.

The Visionstar HY-001 is shaped around one demanding requirement, which is getting a patient low enough for comfortable seated work beneath an ophthalmic microscope. Electric height runs from 620mm to 820mm on a table measuring 2180mm by 600mm, with the head plate lifting manually through a further 0 to 120mm. A 304 stainless steel base and stainless steel housing carry seamless mould formed leather bedding, and the standard configuration includes an anaesthetic screen, two surgeon hand support racks, two patient hand supports, a handheld controller and four concealed castors.
