Indirect ophthalmoscope. It has a separate power supply, a separate illumination, separate focussing and magnifying system [than the direct ophthalmoscope.] The illumination system is worn on the forehead of the examiner. The magnifier also known as condenser is held in the right hand of the examiner. ... The indirect ophthalmoscope gives a real, inverted and magnified image of the fundus. The image is formed in front of the eye of the patient. The magnification depends upon the power of the magnifier. The stronger is the magnifier (condenser), the less is the magnification. 5, record 1, English, - indirect%20ophthalmoscope

Tiene las ventajas de proporcionar una iluminación de gran intensidad(se puede valorar el fondo de ojo aún a través de medios ópticos turbios), visión estereoscópica y un amplio campo visual, así como permitir una valoración dinámica de la patología vitreorretiniana. 1, record 1, Spanish, - oftalmoscopio%20indirecto
