General Warnings
A warning statement in this manual identifies a condition or practice which, if
not corrected or discontinued immediately, could lead to patient injury, illness, or
death.
CAUTION: Because prolonged intense light exposure can damage the retina, the use of
the device for ocular examination should not be unnecessarily prolonged, and the bright-
ness setting should not exceed what is needed to provide clear visualization of the target
structures.
The retinal exposure dose for a photochemical hazard is a product of the radiance and
the exposure time. If the value of radiance were reduced in half, twice the time would be
needed to reach the maximum exposure limit.
While no acute optical radiation hazards have been identified for direct or indirect oph-
thalmoscopes, it is recommended that the intensity of light directed into the patient's eye
be limited to the minimum level which is necessary for diagnosis. Infants, aphakes and
persons with diseased eyes will be at greater risk. The risk may also be increased if the
person being examined has had any exposure with the same instrument or any other oph-
thalmic instrument using a visible light source during the previous 24 hours. This will
apply particularly if the eye has been exposed to retinal photography.
