Welch Allyn Elite retinoscopes deliver high-brightness streak illumination for accurate refractive assessment, helping clinicians perform faster and more precise eye exams.

Makes refractions easier than ever by producing one of the brightest, sharpest, and cleanest streaks available. Provides 2.8x the brightness of Welch Allyn standard retinoscopes.

Superior streak quality enables easier and quicker refractions-even in patients with small pupils. Crossed linear polarizing filter eliminates bothersome glare from trial lenses, helping you perform a more precise exam. External focusing sleeve improves comfort and maneuverability.

Sealed optics keep the lenses cleaner for more effective exams. Fits all Welch Allyn 3.5V power sources. For those preferring a spot retinoscope, the streak retinoscope converts to a spot retinoscope by simply replacing the streak lamp with a spot lamp.

Engineered with advanced optical performance and ergonomic control, the Welch Allyn Elite retinoscope enhances diagnostic confidence while improving workflow efficiency in optometry clinics, ophthalmology practices, and vision screening environments.

Compatible accessories further extend usability, including fixation cards, lamps, and interchangeable components to support both streak and spot retinoscopy.
