F. This adjustment of the diopters will put the Colposcope in
focus. You will see two measuring circles through the lens. Since
your Colposcope has three different magnifications, the
measurement at the tissue site will vary according to the
magnification you're using. The reference chart gives you the
correct size per magnification change. Note: There is a chart on the
right tan metal housing.
G. It is important to keep a record of the adjustments on the
Diopters for both your left and right eyes. Since most offices have
multiple people using the Colposcope, the eyepieces will be different
when someone else wants to use it. By remembering your diopter
settings clarity can be achieved by simply moving the diopters to
your setting when you are ready to use the Colposcope. This avoids
you going through steps A–E each time.
A Note for Eyeglass Wearers:
For best results when wearing eyeglasses, fold down the
Colposcope's rubber eye cups. Then place your eyeglasses against
the folded down eye cups while using the Colposcope. When you are
finished using the Colposcope, unfold the rubber eyepieces to
maintain the correct memory in those rubber eyepieces.
