Requirement Description: VA has a requirement to purchase Slit Lamps to deliver patient care at its VA Medical Centers around the country. Slit Lamps are Ophthalmic diagnostic instruments designed for examining the eye (mostly the anterior part of the eye) using an illumination system combined with a binocular microscope. The instruments usually consist of illumination sources with a mechanism that provides a slit beam of light into the eye with different types of illumination (e.g., direct or indirect, focal or diffuse, background illumination), a binocular microscope for viewing the magnified slit image, and a control component for adjusting the focus of the microscope and the slit (e.g., slit rotation, slit width); some also have refraction mirrors to direct light to a camera mounted above the microscope. Slit lamps provide a magnified view of eye structures (e.g., eyelid, sclera, iris, crystalline lens, cornea); some instruments can also examine the retina using specific lenses. Slit lamps are used mainly in the diagnosis of eye conditions. Ophthalmic Tonometers measuring instruments designed to determine intraocular pressure. These instruments may use several different techniques: applanation, indentation, and noncontact (air puff) tonometry. Tonometers can be attached to a slit lamp, and portable and handheld devices are also available. Ophthalmic Tonometers are mainly intended for assessing ocular hypertension (intraocular pressure between 10- and 24-mm Hg is considered normal), usually to screen patients for glaucoma.
