Chronic neck and back pain is the norm in ophthalmology, not the exception. We're designing the next generation of care around the physician.
See It In Action
You've seen what 3D heads-up viewing did for surgery. The VitaPixel SLC brings it to your slit lamp. High dynamic range digital eyes capture exactly what you see through your eyepieces and stream it live to XR glasses in stereoscopic 3D. You stay with the slit lamp. You just stop bending over it.
"I have spent my career craning forward to look through slit lamp oculars, and my neck has kept the score. I'm so proud of the VitaPixel team! This is the first time I have seen an instrument built around the physician instead of the other way around, and it was designed with the patient in mind too."
Dr. Christopher Riemann· Founder and a leading retinal surgeon
Why we exist
Exam after exam, the slit lamp makes you lean in and hold still. Multiply that over a thirty-year career and it's obvious why so many ophthalmologists retire early. That's a problem the field can't afford right now: demand for eye care is climbing, and there aren't enough physicians to meet it. Losing experienced clinicians to musculoskeletal injury only makes a hard situation harder.
Great care begins with the comfort of the caregiver. Technology should elevate, not complicate, clinical care. And no one should have to choose between their career and their health.
Meet the people building itHow It Works
Full binocular depth perception through XR glasses. Not a flat screen. Real stereo vision.
Learn morePurpose-built for the slit lamp you already own. Adds capabilities without changing the way you work.
Learn moreThe clinical picture you see through the eyepiece should survive the journey to the display. Built around precision optics with wide dynamic range and strong low-light capability, the imaging is designed to carry fine detail and faithful color from slit lamp to display.
Learn moreWhat It Does
Keep the slit lamp you trust and the image you trust through it. VitaPixel is a universal upgrade that brings next-generation digital capability to the instrument you already own. No costly replacement, no downtime.
Learn moreStep away from the eyepieces. XR glasses are designed to let you examine in a natural, upright position.
Learn more
Capture images and video during the exam with no workflow interruption, supporting cleaner visual records.
Learn moreFlexible positioning and lower required illumination. When the physician is free to move, the patient is too.
Learn moreStudents, residents, and family members see exactly what you see through the slit lamp, live on any display, without giving up the scope.
Learn moreNo compromise
Whenever you want your direct optical view back, you have it, one motion, instantly. The system is designed to step aside without asking anything of you. Use what you need, when you need it, and change your mind freely.
