Condition & Warranty
Used. This Carl Zeiss SL 130 slit lamp package has been fully tested and is in excellent working order. The premium Zeiss parallel optics are razor-sharp and completely clear, the mechanical movements slide smoothly, and the illumination beam is steady and uniform. The integrated AT 020 tonometer has been mechanically verified for fluid, balanced movement. The unit shows minor cosmetic wear consistent with a used clinical instrument. Carefully tested before shipping. Covered by a 90-day warranty on parts and workmanship.
Carl Zeiss SL 130 — Used Slit Lamp with Integrated AT 020 Tonometer
The Carl Zeiss SL 130 is an elite, high-performance biomicroscope built to deliver exceptional optical clarity and mechanical precision. Featuring a 5-step Galilean magnification changer (6×, 10×, 16×, 25×, and 40× with 12.5× eyepieces), its parallel optical path provides a high-contrast, true-color, stereoscopic view of the anterior segment. A single-handed joystick gives micrometer-precise X-Y-Z control for effortless tracking during detailed examinations.
This clinical package includes the Carl Zeiss AT 020 Applanation Tonometer, a gold-standard instrument that mounts directly onto the slit lamp to measure intraocular pressure using the proven Goldmann method. The tonometer swings seamlessly into place during a routine biomicroscopy exam, making this used workstation a premium, all-in-one diagnostic solution for demanding eyecare practices.
According to the National Library of Medicine, research on slit-lamp-mounted Goldmann applanation tonometry confirms it remains the clinical reference standard for accurate, repeatable intraocular pressure measurement in glaucoma diagnosis and monitoring.
Why Practices Choose the Carl Zeiss SL 130
- Elite Parallel Optics — wide field of view, excellent depth of focus, and sharp resolution for reliable structural diagnostics
- Integrated Goldmann Tonometry — the factory-matched AT 020 tonometer allows instant, precise IOP testing without moving the patient to another machine
- 5-Step Magnification Changer — switches across five distinct click-stops (6× to 40×) to capture wide overviews or microscopic cellular layers
- Versatile Beam Manipulation — slit width and length adjust continuously (0 to 14 mm) with full 180° slit rotation for dynamic optical slicing
- Ergonomic Controls — well-positioned knobs and a fluid mechanical joystick allow comfortable, single-handed micro-alignments
- Premium Diagnostic Filters — built-in filter wheel with cobalt blue, red-free (green), and heat-absorbing filters for fluorescein and vascular assessments
- Heavy-Duty Construction — Carl Zeiss all-metal architecture resists structural drift and maintains long-term calibration
Clinical Applications
- Comprehensive Anterior Segment Diagnostics — evaluating corneal layers, endothelial health, iris structures, and crystalline lens cataracts
- Gold-Standard Glaucoma Management — using the precise AT 020 mechanical applanation arm for definitive intraocular pressure checks
- Contact Lens Assessment — reviewing lens fit, centration, edge lift, and corneal compatibility under blue-light illumination
- Posterior Pole Biomicroscopy — when paired with a handheld fundus lens, for detailed viewing of the optic nerve head, macula, and vitreous
Who This Is For
- Glaucoma and Cornea Specialists — who require the highest level of optical resolution paired with an ultra-precise Goldmann measurement arm
- Comprehensive Optometry and Ophthalmology Clinics — seeking an all-in-one premium diagnostic workstation to maximize lane efficiency
- High-Volume Private Practices — adding a flagship Zeiss slit lamp setup to a secondary lane without the capital expense of new gear
