Zeiss Clarus 500 — Used Ultra-Widefield Fundus Camera

The Zeiss Clarus 500 is an ultra-widefield (UWF) fundus camera that captures True Color images of the retina from the macula out to the periphery. A single capture covers 133°, two captures are merged automatically into a 200° ultra-widefield view, and the montage function extends coverage up to 267°. This used Zeiss Clarus 500 runs on Windows 10, comes on its electric table, and has both FAF-Blue and FAF-Green autofluorescence enabled.

Broad Line Fundus Imaging gives the Zeiss Clarus 500 an optical resolution of 7.3 µm, so fine detail such as microaneurysms and small hemorrhages stays sharp when you zoom into the far periphery. It works through pupils as small as 2.5 mm, which helps many routine exams proceed without dilation.

A prospective study indexed by the National Library of Medicine found that Clarus ultra-widefield grading agreed strongly with the ETDRS 7-field standard for diabetic retinopathy, while the added peripheral view helped identify eyes with more advanced disease.

Why Practices Choose the Zeiss Clarus 500

• True Color ultra-widefield imaging — natural, true-to-life retinal color instead of pseudo-color, from the posterior pole to the periphery.
• 133° in one shot, 200° in two — automatic merging produces an ultra-widefield view, with montage up to 267° when you need the far periphery.
• FAF-Blue and FAF-Green — two autofluorescence options on this unit for monitoring the retinal pigment epithelium in AMD, geographic atrophy and dystrophies.
• 7.3 µm optical resolution — high-definition detail that holds up when you zoom into peripheral lesions.
• 2.5 mm minimum pupil — reliable captures through small pupils, often without dilation.
• Infrared and external eye imaging — additional modalities on the same capture screen.
• Windows 10 platform — a current operating system for clinic networks and image export.
• Ready-to-use setup — ships with its electric table, keyboard and power cable.

Clinical Applications

• Diabetic retinopathy — documenting hemorrhages, IRMA and neovascularization beyond the standard ETDRS fields.
• Peripheral retina evaluation — lattice degeneration, retinal holes and tears, nevi and peripheral detachments.
• AMD and geographic atrophy — FAF-Blue and FAF-Green to follow areas of atrophy over time.
• Inherited retinal disease — multimodal records of pigment and RPE changes across the whole fundus.
• Glaucoma and optic nerve documentation — high-resolution True Color disc photography alongside the widefield view.

Who This Is For

• Retina specialists who need True Color widefield images and FAF in one device.
• Comprehensive ophthalmology and optometry practices adding ultra-widefield screening without dilating every patient.
• Diabetic eye screening programs that want peripheral coverage with fewer captures.
• Clinics replacing a standard 45° fundus camera with an ultra-widefield platform.
