Visionstar SL-232

Product Code: EOAS-OAVT-3484

A deeper tray, so the power you want is already in it.

Building a power from two stacked lenses adds avoidable error. The SL-232 runs 312 mm deep, holds red and black-ringed banks, and packs at 6.0 kg with its case.

The Visionstar SL-232 is a large-format trial lens set with plastic rings, one of three versions on a shared sheet: the SL-232 in plastic, the JSL-232 in metal, and the CSL-232 described as colour. The sheet gives three figures for the family: a ring inner diameter of 36.5 mm, a size of 532 × 312 × 34 mm, and a weight of 6.0 kg packed with an aluminium case.

The photograph shows a grey tray with red-ringed lenses filling one side, black-ringed lenses on the other, two smaller banks of silver-rimmed lenses between them, and a handled accessory below.

Size is the distinguishing feature. At 312 mm deep against the SL-158's 250 mm, this tray holds noticeably more, and the extra room is what separates a set that covers a clinic's work from one that runs out at the edges. When a set lacks a power, the usual answer is to stack two lenses, which introduces reflections, alters the effective vertex and compounds any small errors. Holding the exact lens avoids all of that.

The weight is published here, which the smaller sets do not state: 6.0 kg with its aluminium case. That is a two-handed carry rather than something to take on a home visit, and it confirms this as a set for a fixed clinic room, with the case serving storage and transfer between sites rather than daily portability.

Unpublished are the lens count, the power range and steps, whether prisms and auxiliary lenses are included, the lens material, the ring outer diameter, and what the two central silver-rimmed banks contain.

Hospital eye departments benefit most, since referred and complex cases need powers a smaller set may not carry, and improvising by stacking lenses is least acceptable where accuracy matters most.

High prescriptions draw on the extremes of a set, which is where a larger range earns its place.

Low vision clinics need unusual powers and combinations, often beyond the span of a compact set.

Main refraction rooms suit a set that stays put, with the case used for storage rather than daily carrying.

Teaching clinics gain from a full range, so students meet the whole spread of powers rather than a subset.

Multi-site groups can move the cased set between clinics when needed, which 6.0 kg makes practical occasionally rather than daily.

Domiciliary work is better served by a compact set, since 6.0 kg is a two-handed lift.

Compatibility with existing frames depends on the unpublished ring outer diameter, which should be confirmed before purchase.

A deeper tray

312 mm of depth holds more lenses than the 250 mm trays of the smaller sets.

Fewer improvised powers

A wider range means the exact lens is more often available, avoiding stacked-lens error.

Supplied cased

An aluminium case is stated, which protects the set in storage and between sites.

Published weight

6.0 kg packed is stated outright, so buyers know what they are lifting.

Two clear banks

Red-ringed and black-ringed lenses occupy opposite sides of the tray.

Central accessory groups

Two smaller banks sit between the main groups, subject to confirming their contents.

Plastic rings

Lighter and generally less costly to replace than metal on a set this size.

A metal alternative

The JSL-232 offers the same format with metal rings for heavier use.

Its unknowns stated plainly

Lens count, power range, ring meaning and central bank contents are all identified to confirm.

Large-format tray

532 × 312 × 34 mm.

Plastic rings

Lenses rimmed in moulded plastic, per the sheet heading.

36.5 mm inner diameter

The clear aperture of each ring.

6.0 kg packed weight

Including the aluminium case.

Aluminium case

Stated on the sheet.

Red and black banks

Two main lens groups on opposite sides of the tray.

Central silver-rimmed banks

Two smaller groups between the main banks. Contents confirmed at order.

Ring colour meaning

Not stated. Confirmed before supply.

Ring outer diameter

Not published. Confirmed against your trial frames before supply.

Lens count

Not stated. Confirmed before supply.

Power range and steps

Not published. Confirmed before supply.

Lens material

Not stated. Confirmed at order, with suitable cleaning agents.

The Visionstar SL-232 is the largest plastic-ringed set in this range: a 532 × 312 mm tray holding red and black-ringed banks with two smaller groups between them, weighing 6.0 kg packed with an aluminium case. The depth is the point, since a set that carries the power you need saves you from stacking two lenses and accepting the error that brings. At 6.0 kg it belongs in a fixed clinic room, with the case for storage or occasional transfer, while domiciliary work suits a compact set. The lens count, power range, ring colour meaning, central bank contents and ring outer diameter are all unpublished. Medigear.uk confirms each in writing.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything buyers need to know about sourcing medical equipment through MediGear.

Depth. The tray is 312 mm deep against 250 mm, so it holds more lenses in the same width. The SL-232 also publishes its weight and states an aluminium case, neither of which the SL-158 sheet gives.

The SL-232 has plastic rings, the JSL-232 metal rings, and the CSL-232 is described as colour. All three share the published inner diameter, size and weight. Medigear.uk confirms the differences in writing.

Because a missing power has to be improvised, usually by stacking two lenses. That adds reflections, changes the effective vertex distance and compounds small errors. A larger set means the exact lens is more often to hand.

Not really. It is a two-handed lift and suited to a fixed clinic room, with the case for storage or moving between sites. For domiciliary work, a compact set such as the JSL-104 at 2.5 kg is the practical choice.

Two smaller groups sit between the red and black banks, but the sheet does not identify them. They may hold prisms, auxiliary lenses or a different lens type. We confirm the contents before you order.

Trial sets commonly use ring colour to distinguish lens types, but the sheet does not say what red and black denote here. We confirm before supply rather than let a clinician guess at the chair.

That depends on the ring outer diameter, which is not published. The 36.5 mm inner diameter is consistent with the common 38 mm format, but we confirm the outer diameter against your frames.

Not stated. The model number may suggest a count, but the sheet does not give one. We confirm the full contents before you order.

They are lighter and generally less costly to replace, which matters more on a set of this size. The JSL-232 offers the same format in metal, which resists knocks better over years of heavy use.

Not stated. The rings are plastic, but the lenses may be glass or resin, which differ in weight and cleaning. We confirm the material.

Trial lenses are generally Class I medical devices under the UK Medical Devices Regulations 2002. Medigear.uk confirms CE marking, the declaration of conformity and UKCA status at quotation.

Clean lenses with an agent suited to their material, return each to its own bank, check rings for cracks, and keep the case closed between sessions. Typical warranty is 12 months, confirmed at quotation.
