Visionstar YZ-3

The YZ-3 portable slit lamp is built for clinicians who need genuine slit-lamp biomicroscopy in places where a full-table instrument cannot easily go. In branch and satellite practices, it serves as a compact primary or backup unit, using the same optic-section and parallelepiped techniques as in the main consulting room. Because it runs from a rechargeable battery, it fits rooms and buildings where mains sockets are limited, and it moves easily between sites within a group.

Screening and outreach work is a natural setting for it. Community and mobile teams can carry it to camps, events, and remote clinics, using its bright 15,000 lux LED and fully adjustable slit to assess the cornea, conjunctiva, lens, and anterior chamber away from a fixed base. The cobalt blue filter supports fluorescein staining for corneal abrasions and dry-eye assessment, while the red-free filter aids the study of fine vessels.

Teaching departments value the instrument for demonstrating true slit technique, since students can see how slit width, height, and ±30° rotation change what the beam reveals. Optometry practices use it as a flexible instrument for routine anterior segment examinations, contact lens aftercare, and triage. For general ophthalmic work, it covers lid and lash inspection, tear-film review, and lens assessment through its two-step magnification at 10x and 16x. Whether the buyer is an NHS or institutional procurement team, a trade distributor, or an individual clinician, Medigear.uk supplies the YZ-3 to match each of these settings and can advise on filters, batteries, and accessories to suit the intended workflow.

A true, fully adjustable slit

The YZ-3 controls slit width from a fine line to 12 mm, has four height settings, and offers ±30° rotation, giving genuine optic-section and parallelepiped technique rather than fixed spots.

Battery-powered independence

A 7.4 V 2200 mAh rechargeable lithium battery lets it work where mains power is scarce and recharge between clinics, sessions, and screening lists.

Bright 15,000 lux LED.

The LED source delivers 15,000 lux of even, colour-accurate light, keeping the anterior segment clearly lit for detailed viewing while staying cool in use.

Converging optics with 10x and 16x

A converging microscope with two-step magnification moves from a wide survey of the ocular surface to a closer study of fine corneal and conjunctival detail.

Adjustable pupil distance

A pupil distance range of 50 to 75 mm lets each clinician set the eyepiece spacing to their own eyes for comfortable, fused binocular viewing.

Wide ±8D dioptre compensation

Dioptre compensation of ±8D corrects for the observer's refractive error across a broad range, keeping the image sharp without spectacles at the instrument.

Compact and portable

The small, light form moves easily between rooms and sites, suiting branch clinics, screening work, and any setting that needs biomicroscopy without a table instrument.

Supplied and supported by Medigear.uk

Medigear.uk stocks the YZ-3 for NHS and institutional procurement, trade distributors, and direct buyers, with guidance on quantities, filters, batteries, and lead times.

Converging microscope

The YZ-3 uses a converging microscope to produce a bright, upright image of the front of the eye for accurate anterior segment assessment.

Two-step 10x and 16x magnification

Two magnification steps let the examiner move between a wide survey and a closer study of corneal and conjunctival detail.

Continuously adjustable slit width

The slit width adjusts continuously from a fine line up to 12 mm to suit different structures and examination techniques.

Four slit height settings

Slit heights of 0.2 mm, 1 mm, 5 mm, and 12 mm shape the beam for optic sections, parallelepipeds, and narrow-beam study.

±30° slit rotation

The slit rotates through ±30°, allowing the examiner to angle the beam and place the light exactly where it is needed.

±8D dioptre compensation

Adjustable dioptre compensation of ±8D corrects for the observer's refractive error over a wide range.

50 to 75 mm pupil distance

An adjustable pupil distance of 50 to 75 mm sets the eyepiece spacing for comfortable binocular viewing.

60 mm working distance

A working distance of 60 mm keeps a practical gap between the instrument and the eye during examination.

LED light source

A long-life LED source provides even, colour-accurate illumination and stays cool through a full clinic list.

15,000 lux illumination

Illumination of 15,000 lux gives a bright, clear view of the anterior segment and crisp optic sections.

Colour temperature compensation filter

The colour temperature compensation filter keeps the view natural and comfortable during routine examination.

Red-free filter

The red-free filter enhances contrast for the study of fine blood vessels and surface detail.

Cobalt blue filter

The cobalt blue filter pairs with fluorescein for corneal, tear-film, and contact-lens assessment.

Rechargeable 7.4 V 2200 mAh battery

The onboard 7.4 V 2200 mAh lithium battery powers the unit away from mains and recharges between sessions.

Compact portable design

The small footprint and lightweight design allow it to move between rooms and sites and to fit in smaller consulting spaces supplied by Medigear.uk.

The Visionstar YZ-3 portable slit lamp puts genuine slit-lamp biomicroscopy within reach of clinics, screening teams, and teaching settings that cannot rely on a full table instrument or a mains socket. With a fully adjustable slit of width, height, and ±30° rotation, converging 10x and 16x optics, a bright 15,000 lux LED, a wide ±8D dioptre range, adjustable pupil distance, and a rechargeable 7.4 V 2200 mAh battery, the YZ-3 delivers proper anterior segment technique in a compact, portable package. Whether you are buying for NHS and institutional procurement, trade distribution, or your own practice, Medigear.uk supplies the YZ-3 with the guidance you need.
