Las Lupas Perioptix son lupas premium fabricadas con dos objetivos.
El primero es tener una magnificación, iluminación y calidad óptima.
El segundo es proteger la postura de los profesionales al momento de estar largas jornadas en procedimientos quirúrgicos mejorando significativamente la postura de trabajo evitando encorvarse para obtener una buena visión del campo quirúrgico reduciendo la fatiga y extiendiendo la longevidad de la profesión.
Las Lupas PeriOptix se fabrican especialmente para usted como si fuera un traje a medida en nuestro Laboratorio de California.
La fabricación se realiza en base a la ubicación de sus pupilas en su rostro, las distancia que separa a sus ojos del campo operatorio y su prescripción oftalmológica (en el caso de usar lentes de cerca/media distancia).
Una lupa ultra liviana de sólo 56gr le permite realizar su trabajo sin generar stress en la musculatura de los ojos y cabeza, preservando su visión y eliminando dolores de cabeza. Las lupas mantendrán su espalda derecha evitando que trabaje en posiciones forzadas que favorecen al desarrollo de deformaciones musculoesqueléticas y consecuentes dolores de espalda y cuello.
