Reichert Slit Lamp XCEL 400 — Used with Mounted Optilasa Applanation Tonometer
The Reichert slit lamp XCEL 400 is a compact, reliable biomicroscope built for the full range of routine anterior segment examination — and this unit ships with a factory-mounted Optilasa applanation tonometer already installed, eliminating the need to purchase and mount a tonometer separately. With a 3-step magnification changer (10×, 16×, 25×), a complete filter set, and an internal fixation target, this Reichert slit lamp covers corneal, conjunctival, lens, and anterior vitreous examination across all standard clinical scenarios. The mounted Optilasa tonometer provides Goldmann-style applanation IOP measurement at the same session — no separate tonometer needed. For practices equipping an exam lane on a controlled budget, this Reichert slit lamp and tonometer combination delivers two instruments in one footprint at a used price.
Research published by the National Library of Medicine in a 2026 comparative study confirmed the continued clinical role of Goldmann applanation tonometry as the reference-standard method for intraocular pressure measurement in glaucoma screening and management — validating the XCEL 400’s integrated tonometer as a clinically meaningful component.
Why Practices Choose the Reichert XCEL 400
Integrated Optilasa applanation tonometer — Goldmann-style tonometer arrives factory-mounted; IOP measurement is always available without a separate instrument or setup.- 3-step magnification (10×, 16×, 25×) — covers overview assessment at 10× through fine anterior segment detail at 25×; parfocal design maintains focus during magnification changes.
- Internal fixation target — built-in fixation light guides patient gaze during examination without requiring a separate external fixation device.
- Complete filter set — cobalt blue for fluorescein assessment, red-free for nerve fiber and vascular evaluation, heat-absorbing and neutral density filters all included.
- Compact table-top form factor — the XCEL 400 fits any standard slit lamp table or stand; no dedicated rail or custom mount required.
- Two instruments, one footprint — slit lamp biomicroscopy and applanation tonometry in a single unit reduces lane clutter and equipment switching.
- Used value with warranty coverage — 90-day Digital Eye Center warranty provides a safety net at a used price point.
Clinical Applications
- Comprehensive anterior segment examination — cornea, conjunctiva, iris, and crystalline lens
- Intraocular pressure measurement with the integrated Optilasa applanation tonometer for glaucoma screening and monitoring
- Fluorescein staining evaluation for corneal epithelial integrity and dry eye grading
- Contact lens fitting and follow-up assessment with cobalt blue illumination
- Pre- and post-operative anterior segment examination for cataract and refractive procedures
- Gonioscopy with Goldmann or Zeiss contact lens for angle evaluation
Who This Is For
- Ophthalmology and optometry practices equipping an exam lane with slit lamp and tonometry in one used package
- Glaucoma monitoring offices needing applanation IOP capability at the slit lamp without a separate tonometer
- Multi-location groups adding a second or satellite lane on a controlled equipment budget
- Residents and teaching clinics requiring additional slit lamp stations with integrated tonometry
