The human eye is an extremely delicate organ, and so performing ophthalmic surgery requires the ability to monitor progress on a micro-level. Ophthalmic operating microscopes are designed to provide high contrast and detailed imaging of all regions of the human eye. When choosing an ophthalmic operating microscope, it is important to pay attention to the type of optics employed. An apochromatic lens (or apo) will provide high light transmission, permitting high-quality imaging at lower light intensities. Certain models of ophthalmic surgery microscope provide multiple lighting options such as the ability to switch between halogen and xenon. An ophthalmic surgical microscope can either be fixed or adjustable, and some models provide a second “observer” set of binoculars, some of which can independently adjust the focusing mechanism.

| Description | The Leica M844 F40 belongs to the premium class of ophthalmic surgical microscopes and offers optimal solutions particularly for posterior and high-end anterior segment surgery.
Combined with the Leica M844 APO OptiChrome™ optics and direct halogen | Leica M841 offers a multitude of forward-looking and constructive solutions with the goal of providing the best possible conditions. |
| Features | - See more with less light
Leica Optics have superior light gathering ability. Sharp, brilliant, true anatomical color images with excellent depth of field are obtained under limited or even no microscope illumination. The result: better detail recognition, added patient safety, and fatigue-free viewing for the surgeon.
- QuadZoom: The teaching solution
Only Leica's QuadZoom™ technology features four separate beam paths in the same zoom system. No manual adjustment by the teacher is necessary. Leica's Double Wing furthermore allows two students/assistants to have full stereo view at the same magnification.
- Work in comfort
The Leica M844 F40 offers various features to enhance the surgeon's and assistant's comfort and to support an ergonomical workflow. For example: individually adjustable binocular tubes such as the UltraLow™ II binocular tubes, Leica Wireless Footswitch, Two-in-One display, StepCycle™, and Auto Reset function.
- High-definition documentation
The Med X Change HDMD™ All-in-One (AIO), a compact, integrated HD digital recording system, provides stunning, high-quality videos, and still images. The system is exclusively available from Leica Microsystems. Additionally, surgical cases can be wirelessly transfered to an Apple® device with Med X Mobile.
- Integration of retinal accessories
Leica Microsystems' surgical microscopes are designed to integrate the most commonly used wide-angle observation systems and stereo image inverters. They are also provided with a quick mount interface to comfortably and quickly install and remove e.g. the Leica slit lamp.
- True Red Reflex
The double beam stereo illumination and Leica's large OttoFlex™ II illumination diameter enable true three-dimensional vision, and better Red Reflex stability and brightness. The result: increased depth of field, less XY-centering and refocusing required, brightness adjustable where it is needed most.
| Motorized XY-unit, adjustable speed with automatic and manual reset function. Motorized tilt mechanism, adjustable speed. QuadZoom™ with four beam paths. 100% illumination and stereo view at the identical magnification. OttoFlex™ for patient safety, high contrast and brilliant red reflex. Quick-change lamp mount. ErgonOptic™ means a wide range of observation options for comfortable fatigue free viewing, such as the ultra low binocular tube. OPEN Control™ which provides user-specific configuration with continuous monitoring of all functions. Foot/handswitches with 12 functions. Asepsis for all controls. |
