SBM Sistemi DEM100–DSLC200 Digital Slit Lamp Imaging and Dry Eye System

The SBM Sistemi DEM100–DSLC200 is a modular imaging solution designed to upgrade a compatible slit lamp with digital photography, video recording, patient documentation and ocular-surface assessment capabilities.

The DSLC200 camera integrates into the slit lamp’s optical path through a premium optical image splitter. Unlike conventional eyepiece-mounted cameras, this arrangement preserves the natural binocular viewing experience while capturing consistent digital images and video. Its 3.1-megapixel camera uses a 1/1.8-inch sensor and connects directly to a workstation through USB 3.0 SuperSpeed without requiring a separate acquisition card.

The DEM100 supplements the imaging system with electronically controlled white diffused and near-infrared illumination. In combination with the applicable software, it allows the slit lamp to support tear-film interferometry, meibography, tear-meniscus evaluation, blink analysis, eyelid-margin documentation and ocular-redness classification.

The system can be installed on many slit-lamp models using the corresponding optical coupling. Separate coupling designs are available for Haag-Streit-style systems and other compatible slit lamps. Compatibility must be confirmed before ordering.
