At the end of a long day, which would you prefer--the view through conventional microscope eyepieces or the view through the revolutionary new ISIS^® expanded pupil eyepieces?

Sorry, microscope not included.

Slides into the eyepice tubes of existing binocular microscopes

Can be used with stereo, compound momo, infinity corrected or finite, upright or inverted microscopes of most leading brand names

Titting takes 60 seconds and is easily carried out by the user

Can be used with camera adapters, trinocular heads, and other accessories

Improves the optical performance of most stereo and mono microscopes at all magnifications from 6x - 1200x

Works well with biological, metallurgical and oil immersion objectives

Can be used with a variety of illuminators including: polarization, fluorescence, bright/dark field, Normarski, phase contrast, etc.

How It Works
The patented ISIS accessory deploys Vision Engineering's award-winning Expanded Pupil (EP) Technology and simply fits in place of the traditional eyepieces on mono, routine, research, and stereo microscopes.

ISIS offers an exit ray bundle twelve times larger than a conventional eyepiece, permitting a greater freedom of head movement shich reduces fatigue and additionally increases the distance between the user's eyes and the eyepiece by a factor of four. The Expanded Pupil image is generated by a pair of tiny multifaceted transfer disks; one 83mm diameter disk for each eyepiece. Their surfaces contain over 2 million individual linticules (lenses) and spin at high speed to merge the millions of individual optical paths, delivering an aberration-free, high-clarity image.



ISIS overcomes the usual requirement for users to precisely align their eye with the center of each eyepiece.

Conversely, conventional eyepieces have a narrow exit ray bundle, so users are required to precisely align their eye with the center of each eyepiece. Typically, a slight movement of the eye results in loss of part of the field of vision as the pupil moves beyond the narrow conventional ray bundle.

Information & Ordering
Currently, ISIS is designed to fit most microscopes with 30mm diameter eyepiece tubes, but will shortly be compatible with microscopes with 23mm diameter eyepiece tubes.

ISIS fits most well-known other-brand microscopes, with the number of compatible systems constantly increasing as Vision Engineering continues their development process. To find out how ISIS can be retrofitted to your current microscope, please contact Lab Essentials, Inc. at 1-888-522-7226. We will need your microscope manufacturer and model number.
