Abstract
A contactless visualization system for a microscope for eye surgery includes an ophthalmic loupe positionable in front of a patient's eye and supplies a real and vertically and laterally inverted image of the fundus in an intermediate image plane observable with the microscope. The loupe includes first and second lens elements. When positioned in front of the eye, the first lens element is closer to the eye than the second. A wall extending from the first to the second lens element has a free end in a form of a mount which holds the second lens element. The wall has a passage opening formed therein for removing liquid possibly present in an intermediate space between the first lens element and the second lens element. The first lens element has a boundary surface facing the second lens element. The passage opening includes a lower edge bordering on the boundary surface of the first lens element.
