A slit lamp is a specialized microscope used by eye care professionals to examine the anterior and posterior segments of the eye.

It provides a high-intensity light source and magnification for detailed observation of the cornea, lens, iris, and retina.

Slit lamps are essential for diagnosing eye conditions like cataracts, glaucoma, corneal injuries, and infections.

Available in manual and digital models, with some offering photo and video recording capabilities.
