Volk's exhibit at booth 2543 will feature its entire line of diagnostic, therapeutic, and surgical ophthalmic lenses, equipment, and accessories. In addition to hands-on demonstrations, Volk will offer special show pricing and a free multi-lens case with purchase.

For diagnostic work, Volk's Digital Wide Field lens provides the widest field of view available in a non-contact lens for detailed far peripheral views even through small pupils. As part of the patented Digital Series, the Wide Field lens is constructed of high grade glass in a double aspheric design that maintains linear image magnification and image clarity across the entire field of view.

For Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty procedures, Volk has recently introduced the SLT Lens. The lens provides detailed, high resolution views of the anterior chamber angle for examination and laser spot placement. The 1.0x magnification maintains laser spot size and power density and its curved upper lens surface ensures the laser beam profile remains circular, for consistent laser spot placement. These qualities also make the SLT lens equally suitable for all laser trabeculoplasty procedures.
