ScopeShield OD (ophthalmic)
ScopeShield Brands
Regular price $142.00
ScopeShield OD (ophthalmic) is a patented universal personal protective device designed for all ophthalmic slit-lamp biomicroscopes.
Our innovative design provides clinician protection from potentially infectious viruses and patient splatter while allowing the clinician direct visual access to the slit-lamp microscope eyepieces without the need for a face shield. Our proprietary materials are hypoallergenic and our transparent design offers direct visualization of the patient and accompanying armamentarium — all while providing needed protection. It’s easy to mount and easy to remove.
Clinical Pathway Reference
Explore the clinical context for this product in the RootRadar pathway on Operator Protection and Optical Clarity.
The aerosol and splatter interface at a slit-lamp biomicroscope presents the same fundamental challenge as the dental operating microscope: the clinician’s face is in close proximity to a patient-generated contamination field, and standard PPE does not address the specific geometry of the eyepiece-to-face relationship. ScopeShield OD applies the same purpose-designed barrier principle to the ophthalmic context — protecting the clinician without compromising the optical access that precise examination requires.

6) You’re ready to see your patient!
FAQs
1) My ScopeShield (ophthalmic) slightly curves in with an extremely small interpupillary distance setting — is this normal?
