This clear plastic barrier was designed to block breath between patient and doctor, while not obstructing the use of the slit lamp or the doctor's ability to use lenses with the slit lamp. Fits over oculars on most slit lamp models. It provides a wider and taller barrier than our standard unit. This unit will last your office for years!

Made in the USA by Bernell Corporation.


Material: 30 mil Polycarbonate Plastic

Size: 8.5"H x 8.5"W tapered down to 7.75"W

Please Note: For sanitary reasons, all approved orders of breath shields are non-returnable. For international customers, as well as customers in Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico, please note that your orders will not be considered "approved" until you have approved the shipping and export charges, which will be sent to you in a quote.

Cleaning Instructions:

Using warm water with soap, thoroughly wash away any debris. It is recommended to use a lint-free cloth with alcohol, or another disinfecting wipe, to sterilize the plastic between uses. In order to avoid scratching the plastic, please do not use any abrasive cleaning products, such as brushes.

Installation Instructions:

To install the Slit Lamp Breath Shield onto a standard slit lamp, begin by removing the plastic protective film on both sides of the device. Next, bringing the oculars together as much as necessary to ensure the breath shield can be slit over both of the eyepieces. This may require removing rubberized sleeves on the oculars. Then, place the openings in the breath shield over each ocular. Once the breath shield is in place the oculars may be adjusted back to their original position or as needed for use.
