5.1 Function of the BIOM® 5
The BIOM® 5 is used in conjunction with an SDI® (Stereoscopic Diagonal

Inverter) to erect the image for non-contact, wide-angle observation of the
fundus and vitreous body.
The combination of surgical microscope and the optical components of the
BIOM® 5 allows examination of the vitreous chamber under stereoscopic
conditions. The BIOM® 5 works as an indirect ophthalmomicroscope with-
out corneal contact during the surgery.

6 Transport and Storage
The patient’s eyeball can be moved freely during the surgery. Peripheral
fundus portions are thus easy to examine. This combined optical system
achieves a fundus view of up to 125° in total.
The optical system of the BIOM® 5 consists of the reduction lens and the
front lens. The reduction lens ensures that the distance between the pa-
tient’s eye and the surgical microscope remains more or less the same when
the BIOM® 5 is swiveled in and out. Individually adjusted to the respective
surgical microscope, the microscope objective’s focal distance is reduced.
The position of the reduction lens with respect to the surgical microscope
is preset.
The height adjustment of the front lens is used for focusing the BIOM® im-
age. The distance between the surgical microscope and the front lens is set
using the adjusting wheel at the BIOM® 5.
For BIOM® 5c only:
Press the combination foot switch to focus by means of the electric motor.
This height adjustment of the front lens brings the fundus image into the
focal point of the microscope objective.
As the image is completely reversed when the BIOM® 5 is used, optimal use
is only guaranteed in conjunction with a SDI®. The SDI® rights the complete
image reversal and can be switched on and off as required.
6 Transport and Storage

The following values apply for a period of 6 months at most in the shipping
container.
The transport and storage conditions according to DIN EN ISO 601-1 are:
An ambient temperature range of -40°C to +70°C

A relative humidity range of 10% to 100%,
including condensation
An air pressure range of 5o kPa to 106 kPa
Attention
Risk of damage to the device due to improper transport and storage
 Transport the BIOM® 5 carefully.
 Store the BIOM® 5 under proper storage conditions.

9.7 Instructions for Focusing the

BIOM® 5m
Focusing on the BIOM® 5m is done manually with the adjusting wheel and
can also be done by a sterile assistant, who follows the surgery via a co-
observer viewer.
Fig. 9-11: Focusing with the adjusting wheel
Note
Adjust the ophthalmoscopy lens upwards for hyperopic eyes and
downwards for myopic eyes.
Attention
Risk of eye injury due to poor visibility conditions
If the surgeon works under poor visibility conditions, the use of intraocular
instruments can result in injury to the patient’s eyes.
 When focusing the BIOM® 5, heed the following instructions.
 Make sure that the microscope remains at this position (height) after
the surgical steps have been conducted at the anterior segment and
outside of the eye.
 Before swinging it to the operating position, make sure that the BIOM®
5 has been set to the shortest overall length.
 Before you begin to focus the BIOM® 5, check the distance from the
front lens to the patient’s eye.
 Monitor the distance between the front lens and the eye while focus-
ing the BIOM® 5.

9 BIOM® 5 in Use
 Make sure that the front lens does not come into contact with the eye.
 Do not adjust the working height of the microscope while focusing the
BIOM® 5.
 Do not use the microscope’s focusing function while focusing the BI-
OM® 5.
For BIOM® 5c only (focusing by electric motor):
Focusing of the BIOM® 5c is done by the surgeon by means of the combi-

nation foot switch while observing through the microscope.
 Only use the BIOM® 5c’s motorised focusing function when the front
lens is far enough away from the patient’s eye.
 The surgeon may only use the motorised focusing function when the
distance between the front lens and the eye is simultaneously moni-
tored.
 It must be ensured that the operator can stop the motorised focusing
function at any time.
Attention
Risk of eye injury if the working distance of the BIOM® 5 to the patient is
changed
When swiveling the BIOM® 5 into the work position (into the beam path)
you must comply with the following instructions:
 Do not use the coarse adjustment knob at the microscope stand to
adjust the height.
 Do not adjust the height of the stand arm over the surgical field,
either by motor or manually.
 Do not change the patient’s position by adjusting the height of the
operating table.
9.8 Instructions for Visualization of the

Posterior Eye Segment
After all preparations for surgery in the posterior eye segment have been
completed, proceed as follows, without changing the microscope position!
 Use a suitable endoillumination.
 Swivel the BIOM® 5 into the beam path of the microscope. Lift up
safety rod and only release it again when the swung-in end position
has been reached.
 The lens slides down to its designated position. This position has been
reached when the control marks are fully visible.
 Turn off the microscope illumination.
 Activate the SDI® to right the complete image reversal.

9 BIOM® 5 in Use
 Only for combination BIOM® 5c / SDI® 4c:

 The image reversal is deactivated when the BIOM® 5c is swiveled
out of the beam path.
 The SDI® 4c is automatically activated when the BIOM® 5c is
swiveled to the working position.
 The image reversal function is automatically controlled via the
position switch at the BIOM® 5c.
 Irrespective of this function, the image reversal of the SDI® 4c
can also be optionally controlled with the combination foot-
switch.
 At a low microscope magnification: Begin initial focusing of the
BIOM® 5-image by turning the BIOM® 5 adjusting wheel.
 Magnify the image section by actuating the focus switch at the
microscope.
 Then use the microscope footswitch control to zoom in to maximum
magnification. Now finely focus the image with the adjusting knob of
the BIOM® 5.
Only thus is a parfocal image (i.e. a sharp image at every
magnification) guaranteed.
 For BIOM® 5c only: Adjust the sharpness of the image with the rocker
of the combination foot switch, both for initial focusing and for
parfocally setting the image.
Recommendation: Reduce afterwards the microscope magnification to the
degree necessary to achieve as large a fundus overview as possible.
The use of the focusing function with the microscope foot pedal when the
BIOM® 5 is in use only changes the size of the image field (“keyhole effect“).
Attention
Risk of eye injury if the surgeon works under poor visibility conditions.
 During the entire process, ensure that the front lens cannot touch the
cornea, as otherwise the image may be impaired.
 Keep the cornea moist with a suitable fluid to protect the cornea and
to gain a clear view of the fundus.

9 BIOM® 5 in Use
9.9 Practical Information for Use
Attention
Risk of eye injury as a result of uncontrolled head movements of the
patient.
 Take suitable measures to suppress uncontrolled head movements of
the patient during the surgery.
 Avoid any contact of the front lens with the cornea.

If the lens comes into contact with the cornea, the image immediately
becomes blurred.
 In an extreme emergency, e.g. uncontrolled downward movement of
the microscope:
 Stop with the Emergency Off button.
 Pull or move the complete surgical microscope upwards.
 Tilt the BIOM® 5 out of the beam path.
 After a contact with the eye, swing the BIOM® 5 out, or slide the safety
rod upwards to facilitate cleaning of the optics, so that you can clean
the lens with a sterile swab.
 Make sure that the cornea is sufficiently moistened with a suitable
solution. This will prevent damage to the cornea and will give you the
optimal view into the eye.
Adjustment of the microscope’s focus while the BIOM® 5 is in use acts as a
field diaphragm. The greater the distance between the eye and the
microscope, the smaller the angle of observation. This leads to the so-called
“keyhole effect”.
Focusing on the BIOM® 5m is done manually with the adjusting wheel and
can also be done by a sterile assistant, who follows the surgery via a co-
observer viewer.
 For BIOM® 5c only:

Focusing of the BIOM® 5c is done solely by the surgeon by means of the
combination foot switch while observing through the microscope.
Note
Adjust the ophthalmoscopy lens upwards for hyperopic eyes and
downwards for myopic eyes.

9 BIOM® 5 in Use

12 Cleaning, Sterilization and Maintenance
12.1 Condition Components
 Condition the BIOM® 5 and all BIOM® components before the first and
every subsequent use so that they are sterile.

 To clean, disinfect and sterilize the equipment, proceed as described in

the Conditioning Manual.
Fig. 12-1: Specially designed insert for sterilization containers. Loaded with the BIOM® 5c setup
Attention
Risk of infection if reconditioning is done incorrectly.
 Please heed the separate Conditioning Manual.
Note
The sterilization tray from the company OCULUS Optikgeräte GmbH (Art.
No. 55185) can also be used for cleaning the BIOM® components.
Cleaning and Sterilization Instructions
The BIOM® 5, the adapter and the optics can be cleaned in a dishwasher
with a mild alkaline cleaning agent and can be cleaned and disinfected in
the disinfector (refer to the Conditioning Manual).
Due to the special surface finish required for sterilizability of the BIOM® 5,
structural patterns may become visible. This unavoidable minor blemish
does not in any way adversely affect the function, handling and sterilization
of the unit.
All of the components of the BIOM® 5 listed in sect. 16.1, page 36, the
adapter and the presently available reduction lenses and front lenses,
except for the disposable lens sets, can be steam-autoclaved (134°C).

The OCULUS Optikgeräte GmbH company offers a sterilization container

with a specially designed insert for keeping the BIOM® 5, optical
components and the adapter plate in place for optimum care during and
after sterilization
 Do not use aggressive cleaning agents that contain chlorine or
solvents, nor abrasive or sharp-edged cleaning products to clean the
unit.
 Always heed the product descriptions and directions for use of
products you use to disinfect.
Maintenance
 Maintenance oil (examples):

Aesculap Sterilit i (JG600) oil spray
Aesculap Sterilit i (JG598) Instrument oil
Medicon instrument oil spray 46.00.40
in USA: JG598 Sterilit I Drip Feed Oiler
 If the moving parts are sluggish: After cleaning and prior to steriliza-
tion, treat all moving parts of the BIOM® 5 with a sterilizable, silicone
oil-free conditioning lubricant.
 Remove any excess oil from the surfaces, as staining could otherwise
occur.
Clean and Sterilize
Cleaning materials: Damp cloth

 Clean the BIOM® 5 with water immediately after use. This prevents
incrustations which can make complete sterilization more difficult
 Always remove the optical system components before autoclaving. All
components of the BIOM® 5 listed in sect. 16, page 36 can be sterilized
in a steam autoclave (max. 134°C).
Attention
Risk of function impairment in association with the use of mineralized
water
If you use mineralized water, mineral deposits can form on the device and
impair its function.
 Use only demineralized, filtered water for steam sterilization.
Risk of damage to the device if STERRAD® is used for sterilization
The use of STERRAD® for sterilization purposes can damage the BIOM® 5.
 Do not use STERRAD® for sterilization purposes.

13 Disposal of Used Devices
Clean and Sterilize the Reduction Lens and Ophthalmosco-

py lens
The optics can either be doubly shrink-wrapped or secured in the steriliza-

tion insert from Oculus Optikgeräte GmbH for sterilization in the autoclave.
 Dismantle the optical components of the BIOM® 5 before cleaning and
sterilizing it.
 Stand the lenses and reduction lenses as vertical as possible during
sterilization to prevent water stains from forming on the optics.
 Please be sure to heed the additional instructions given in the specific
instructions for use that are provided with all sterilizable OCULUS
products and sterilization and disinfection systems.
 Avoid damage to the surface and its coating. Always place the compo-
nents of the optical system on a soft surface.
13 Disposal of Used Devices

 Dispose of the BIOM® 5 according to legal regulations. Comply with
the hygiene and waste disposal regulations in force in the hospital or
clinic.
BIOM® 5c
In accordance with Directive 2002/96/EC of the European Parliament and of the

Council of the 27th of January 2003, and the laws in force in the Federal Republic
of Germany governing the putting into circulation and taking back and
environmentally friendly disposal of electrical and electronic devices, old electrical
and electronic devices must be recycled and must not be disposed of with normal
household waste.
