Visionstar SL-266

Product Code: EOAS-OAVT-3490

A higher count in exactly the same tray.

The 266 sets measure the same as the 232 sets, yet the number is higher. The SL-266 is the plastic-rimmed version, with red and black banks and two central groups.

The Visionstar SL-266 is a trial lens set with plastic rings, one of four versions on a shared sheet: SL-266 in plastic, JSL-266 in metal, CSL-266 in colour, and GSL-266 described as golden. The sheet gives two figures for all four: a ring inner diameter of 36.5 mm and a size of 532 × 312 × 34 mm.

The photograph shows a grey tray with red-ringed banks on the left, black-ringed banks on the right, two smaller groups of metal-rimmed lenses between them, and a handled accessory in a central recess.

Those published figures are identical to the 232 sets, which raises the question this page cannot answer from the sheet. A model number of 266 against 232 suggests more lenses, and since the tray is the same size, they would be more closely packed or arranged in narrower columns. That extra capacity might be spent on a wider power range, on finer steps between powers, or on more prisms and auxiliary lenses, and those are very different purchases. Medigear.uk establishes the actual contents of both before recommending either.

Equally, the 232 sheet publishes a weight of 6.0 kg with an aluminium case while this sheet publishes no weight and mentions no case. Whether the 266 sets ship the same way is not stated.

What the tray size does settle is bench planning. At 532 × 312 mm, the set occupies the same space as the 232, so a practice upgrading needs no more room.

Unpublished are the lens count, weight, case, power range and steps, prisms and auxiliary lenses, lens material, ring outer diameter and the contents of the central banks.

Practices upgrading from a smaller set gain the most, provided the additional contents are established first, since the same bench space carries a fuller range.

Hospital eye departments needing wide coverage suit a high-count set, where referred and complex cases call for powers a standard set may lack.

Low vision clinics draw on unusual powers and combinations, which a larger set is more likely to hold.

Teaching clinics benefit from a full range so students meet the whole spread rather than a subset.

Main refraction rooms suit a set that stays in place, with the tray footprint unchanged from the 232 range.

Practices with limited bench space can add capacity without rearranging the room.

Domiciliary work is better served by a compact set, since a tray of this size is not carried easily.

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

More in the same space

A higher model number in an identical tray, subject to confirming what the extra capacity holds.

No change to bench planning

At 532 × 312 mm, the tray matches the 232 sets exactly.

Plastic rings

Lighter and generally less costly to replace than metal, which suits shared handling.

Two clear banks

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

Central accessory groups

Two smaller metal-rimmed banks sit between the main groups.

Four versions available

Plastic, metal, colour and gold finishes share the same published format.

A metal alternative

The JSL-266 offers the same layout with metal rings for heavier use.

Familiar layout

The arrangement matches the SL-232, so staff moving between sets find the same structure.

Its central question flagged

The page says plainly that the contents behind the higher number must be confirmed before ordering.

The Visionstar SL-266 is the plastic-rimmed version of a four-part range, with a 36.5 mm inner diameter in a 532 × 312 mm tray of red and black banks. Its published figures are identical to the SL-232, so the higher model number is the only stated difference, and what it buys, a wider power range, finer steps, or more prisms and auxiliary lenses, is not specified. That question decides whether this set is the right purchase, and the sheet also omits the weight and case that the 232 sheet states. What is certain is that the tray footprint is unchanged, so no extra bench space is needed. Medigear.uk establishes the contents of both sets in writing before recommending either.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

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

By model number only, as far as the sheets go. Both publish a 36.5 mm inner diameter and a 532 × 312 × 34 mm tray, and both show red and black plastic rings on a grey tray. The higher number implies more lenses, but the sheet does not confirm it. We establish the difference in writing before you choose.

Unknown from the sheet, and it matters. Additional capacity could go to a wider power range, finer steps between powers, or more prisms and auxiliary lenses. Each suits a different practice, so we confirm the contents rather than assume.

The sheet does not state one, where the 232 sheet gives 6.0 kg with an aluminium case. Whether the 266 sets are heavier, and whether a case is included, is confirmed before supply.

No. The tray is the same 532 × 312 mm, so a practice moving from one to the other needs no additional room.

SL-266 in plastic, JSL-266 in metal, CSL-266 in colour, and GSL-266 in gold finish. All four share the published inner diameter and tray size, and we confirm what else separates them.

Trial sets commonly use ring colour to distinguish lens types, but the sheet does not say what each denotes here. We confirm before supply.

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.

Two smaller groups of metal-rimmed lenses sit between the main banks, above a handled accessory. The sheet does not identify them, and we confirm the contents.

They are lighter and generally less costly to replace, which suits teaching and shared handling. The JSL-266 offers the same format in metal, which resists knocks better over years.

Not stated. Trial 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 cover or case the tray between sessions. Typical warranty is 12 months, confirmed at quotation.
