Review: The gold standard - Worth it if you need to have one in your pocket at all times. Super durable. Batteries last even though they are cadmium nickel, but the replacement batteries from Welch Allyn can be expensive. Easy to use. Has all the necessary functionality. Gold standard in my book.
Review: It's the real deal - This is a brand new Welch Allyn set in all packaging. Works great, as was expected. Same as the instruments used in the office, although the macro otoscope is new to my use. Did have to order the veterinary specula separately. Nicely cased to throw in my doctor bag. I tried a less expensive set but the optics were awful. Arrived super fast. So good to have Welch Allyn quality again. Great set, great seller. Thanks so much!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this item include a battery charger? If not, what type should I purchase separately?**
A: Hi, yes the charger is part of the set! It plugs right into an outlet!

**Q: Do they have a model w a camera?**
A: No.  Welch Allyn makes a digital Macroview otoscope and iExaminer iPhone bracket for the Panoptic ophthalmoscope.  The bracket allows the iPhone to record the eye exam.  Welch Allyn does not make a set with the digital Macroview, Panoptic, and iExaminer.  You would have to purchase separately.

**Q: Is the opthalmoscope dimmable?**
A: The ophthalmoscope is dimmable through the rheostat on the handle.

**Q: Why is this so much cheaper than the standard set on the Welch Allyn website?**
A: Judging from the comments below I would be concerned that these products are either used or not functioning appropriately from this seller. I was looking into buying one but will go directly through a distributor or Welch Allyn website. I think this seller needs to be reported as many individuals are posting about the same problem: items NOT working.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It's the real deal
*by A***R on February 10, 2024*

This is a brand new Welch Allyn set in all packaging. Works great, as was expected. Same as the instruments used in the office, although the macro otoscope is new to my use. Did have to order the veterinary specula separately. Nicely cased to throw in my doctor bag. I tried a less expensive set but the optics were awful. Arrived super fast.

### ⭐ Disappointed
*by L***I on February 7, 2026*

The inside of the case is made with an extremely thin, gray plastic which was cracked in several places on arrival! The outside box was not damaged at all so that means the plastic simply cracked from the scope moving around in the case during shipping. If you are going to charge $600 for a piece of diagnostic equipment like this, why not finish the inside of the case out in a better material. Really disappointed!
