Gonioscope

A gonioscope is a specialized ophthalmic instrument designed to visualize the angle structures of the anterior chamber of the eye, aiding in the diagnosis and monitoring of conditions like glaucoma. Clinically, it helps assess drainage pathways, detect abnormalities, and evaluate ocular motility and rotation during eye examinations.

Goniscopes are typically classified as medical devices and may be regulated under general ophthalmic or diagnostic device categories depending on jurisdiction. They are often supplied as reusable or single-use tools, with variations in design for compatibility with slit lamps or direct examination. Always check local regulations for specific requirements.
