Dirty Click Stop on Sphere Lens Bank
This piece is supposed to rotate freely, but when dirt builds up around it, it will not rotate. This causes it to wear a flat spot and eventually fail causing the sphere dial to lock up, or drag, thus causing an expensive service call / repair. Preventative maintenance on a timely basis will prevent this from happening.

Geneva Gear
This is a very expensive repair if not properly serviced and maintained.

Dirty Optics
If a phoroptor has not been serviced in 18 months or so, this is the view your patient has looking through the lens. Preventative maintenance on a timely basis will prevent this from happening.

Phoroptor Bearing Rest Wear and Tear
Wear occurs when phoroptor is not serviced on a regular basis. A bearing rest in the center area and over a year or two the lube gets dirty and causes wear. Scheduled maintenance on a timely basis will prevent this from happening.

All of this for $595.00, plus parts if needed.
Phoroptor / Refractor Disassembly
For service and cleaning.

Phoroptor / Refractor Poorly Maintained
Want to know what your phoroptor / refractor might look like inside if you haven't had it serviced in the last two to three years? Lower part of photo is the roller detent for sphere lens bank. It becomes impacted with dirt to the point it no longer rotates as it is designed to do. Instead it drags, creating a flat spot on the roller detent and eventually it will lock up the sphere assembly. Regular service will prevent this.

Impacted Geneva Gear Assembly
The upper part of this photo shows the Geneva Gear Assembly impacted with dirt. Aain, over time, this will cause the Geneva Gear to fail and lock up both weak and strong sphere lens banks. A very costly repair. Regular service can prevent this.
