Updated Design for Patient Comfort

75mm reduced height of examined eye from our previous model ("VX-10" Series) allows for photography in a more relaxed posture.


Instant Image Filing Software is Included

The instant image filing feature allows ID management of images, browsing, and direct output to an external printer. By connecting to the Kowa VK-2 image management system, images can be transferred to electronic medical records.


2 Variable Optical Angles

  • Change the field of view with a quick push of a button
  • Mydriatic mode: 50° or 30° field of view
  • Non-mydriatic mode: 45° or 27° field of view

The Fundus Can Be Observed
Through the Optical Viewfinder

In mydriatic mode, the fundus can be observed through the optical viewfinder, allowing image capture exactly as viewed. This feature is particularly helpful for shooting the peripheral part of the retina.


Adapted for the digital camera

Field of view can be switched between 45°/27° in non-mydriatic mode or between 50°/30° in mydriatic mode by a simple pressing of a button.

Fundus can be observed through the optical viewfinder

In mydriatic mode, the fundus can be observed through the optical viewfinder, allowing photography of images exactly as viewed. This feature is particularly helpful for photographing peripheral part of the retina.
