Description
The Welch Allyn 118-EC PanOptic Basic & Plus Eye Cup is a reusable patient eyecup accessory, supplied as a set of five, designed for use with Welch Allyn PanOptic Basic and PanOptic Plus ophthalmoscopes. The eyecup helps establish and maintain the proper working distance from the patient’s eye, stabilizes the instrument against the brow, serves as a pivot point when panning around the retina, and screens out ambient light to support a clearer retinal view. It is supplied as an OEM accessory from Welch Allyn / Hillrom and is not made with natural rubber latex.
