SPECULAR MICROSCOPE CEM-530; Software version 1.08 and 1.09. Opthalmic: The NIDEK Specular Microscope CEM-530 provides non-contact, high magnification image capture of endothelium enabling observation of the size and shape of cells. Information such as the number of endothelial cells, cell density, and cell area is analyzed through the captured images. The captured images and analysis results of endothelium are used for intraocular or corneal surgery, postoperative follow-up and corneal observation such as for endothelial disorders or the corneal state of patients who wear extended-wear contact lenses.
