The coaxial fiberoptic headlight used by the lacrimal and orbital surgeon is an excellent light source for visualization of the retina. When employed in conjunction with a condensing lens, an inverted stereoscopic aerial image is produced. The eye plastic surgeon might therefore routinely examine the dilated patient in conjunction with lacrimal or orbital surgery.
