New vs. Used Ophthalmic Equipment


As most practitioners know, there is a huge market for used ophthalmic equipment as professionals sell their older equipment and upgrade with new technology. This means there are bargains available and depending on your needs, you might consider investing in used equipment rather than paying full price on new technology. There are advantages and disadvantages related with this kind of buying decision so make sure to research before you take any decision.

Firstly, make sure that you buy used ophthalmic equipment from a reputable resource. Buy the equipment from a manufacturer who understands equipment, and can provide documentation as to the condition of the ophthalmic equipment you buy. You need to completely understand any warranty or return policy on the used ophthalmic instrument or equipment you buy so that you are not given a piece of equipment that doesn't work or that does not come out as you expected. Since, you don't want to buy from an unknown source with no credentials that could run away with your money.

Secondly, you need to consider what you really want. Whatever be your reason make sure you do your research first. In some cases, you can spend the same amount or just a bit more money and replace several pieces of ophthalmic equipment. Always do your research and compare what you are giving up in terms of space, time and technology for the money.


Third, make sure the piece of used ophthalmic equipment you buy can work with other equipment in your office. Perhaps your new or used ophthalmic equipment can coordinate with your digital imaging system, or if it is the same brand you can use similar  batteries or ophthalmic bulbs.

Finally, consider the return on investment. Make sure you make the correct business decision when you buy used ophthalmic equipment.

New ophthalmic equipment is usually very expensive and can't be afforded by everyone. Even though new equipment will have more features and will be really good to use, used ophthalmic equipment is no less. Do your research properly before taking any decisions.
