Condition & Warranty
Used. This Keeler 40H workstation has been inspected and functionally tested across its optics, illumination, joystick travel, magnification drum, and D-KAT tonometer response. The optics are clean and bright, the mechanical joystick moves smoothly on the X-Y-Z axes, and the unit shows only minor cosmetic signs of prior clinical use. Covered by a 90-day warranty on parts and workmanship.
Keeler 40H Slit Lamp — Used Tower Workstation with D-KAT Tonometry
The Keeler 40H slit lamp is a tower-illumination examination workstation built around a Galilean binocular microscope and a five-step magnification drum (6×, 10×, 16×, 25×, and 40×). That range lets a clinician move from low-power structural overviews to high-magnification endothelial and anterior-segment detail on a single instrument. Paired here with the Keeler D-KAT digital applanation tonometer, this Keeler 40H slit lamp package brings Goldmann-standard intraocular pressure measurement directly into the main exam lane.
The D-KAT replaces the classic manual reading drum with a clear digital display, reducing the small estimation errors that come from reading fine mechanical dial lines while preserving the Goldmann applanation contact method clinicians already trust.
A comparative analysis of intraocular pressure measurement methods indexed by the National Library of Medicine reports that Goldmann-standard applanation remains the clinical reference for accurate IOP assessment.
Why Practices Choose the Keeler 40H & D-KAT

- Five-step magnification — 6× through 40× on a rotating drum, wider than the two- and three-step changers on many comparable lamps
- Tower illumination — continuously variable slit width from 0 to 12 mm for precise beam control
- Full aperture set — 0.2, 1, 2, 3, 5, 9, and 12 mm apertures for flexible examination geometry
- Integrated filters — clear, red-free, neutral density, diffuser, blue, and heat-absorbing options
- Digital tonometry — D-KAT displays Goldmann-standard IOP on a high-visibility screen inside the exam lane
- Smooth mechanics — precise X-Y-Z joystick control for repeatable positioning
Clinical Applications
- Anterior-segment examination of the cornea, iris, and lens
- Intraocular pressure measurement with Goldmann-standard applanation tonometry
- Endothelial and high-magnification detail assessment
- Glaucoma monitoring and routine comprehensive eye exams
- Contact lens fitting and follow-up evaluation
Who This Is For
- Ophthalmology and optometry practices building or expanding an exam lane
- Clinics that want integrated digital tonometry on the slit lamp
- Buyers seeking a proven Keeler tower workstation at a used-equipment price
