NIDEK OPD-Scan III Wavefront Analyzer
The NIDEK OPD-Scan III is a revolutionary vision-assessment system that combines corneal topography, wavefront analysis, autorefraction, keratometry, and pupillometry. This comprehensive approach allows for accurate evaluation of corneal and optical aberrations, providing a clear insight into your eye's health.
Key Features:
- Point-by-point eye aberration mapping with OPD Map
- Precise mapping of irregular astigmatism due to increased data points
- Unveiling pathways for vision correction
REICHERT Ocular Response Analyzer® G3
The REICHERT Ocular Response Analyzer® G3 is a tonometer that measures Corneal Hysteresis (CH), an indicator of corneal biomechanical properties. This measurement is a superior predictor of glaucoma progression, offering valuable insights for optimal management and care.
Key Features:
- Measures Corneal Hysteresis, indicating glaucoma progression risk
- Provides Corneal Compensated Intraocular Pressure (IOPcc), a more accurate pressure measurement
- Enhances glaucoma management with biomechanical insights
Zeiss Cirrus HD OCT
The Zeiss Cirrus HD OCT is an advanced spectrum domain OCT instrument that provides high-quality imaging for diagnosing and managing a wide range of glaucoma and retina conditions. Its precision imaging aids in accurate diagnosis and effective treatment planning.
Key Features:
- High-definition imaging for accurate diagnosis
- Valuable insights into glaucoma and retina conditions
- Spectrum domain OCT technology for enhanced accuracy
ZEISS Visucam High-Resolution Retinal Camera
The ZEISS Visucam High-Resolution Retinal Camera produces detailed images to aid in diagnosing and monitoring various eye diseases. This camera offers enhanced diagnostic insight for comprehensive eye care, from glaucoma to macular degeneration.
Key Features:
- High-resolution fundus imaging for detailed analysis
- Versatile imaging modes for diverse diagnostic needs
- Seamless integration into clinic workflow for enhanced practice performance
LIGHTMED Deux SLT/YAG Combination Laser
The LIGHTMED Deux SLT/YAG Combination Laser offers a range of in-office laser procedures, from YAG capsulotomy for secondary cataract formation to Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT) for primary open-angle glaucoma. This advanced laser technology provides cost-effective solutions with minimal disruption.
Key Features:
- Superior Crystal-Q Switch Laser Cavity for precision
- Convenient slit lamp integrated system
- Diverse laser procedures for various eye conditions
optomap Ultra-widefield Photography and Angiography
Regular detailed examination of the inside of the eye – the retina, is critical to eye health. Doctors use a number of techniques to examine the retina including looking into the eye, usually after dilating and the use of special cameras for imaging inside the eye. Until recently, most ophthalmic cameras could only photograph about 20% of the retina at a time. We now know that many eye diseases occur or begin at the outer edges of the retina, (“the periphery”), so examining this area is extremely important. Because seeing the entire retina is so important at Drs. Ditto & Musick, we have invested in the most advanced camera for ultra-widefield photography and angiography. In a single, quick shot, this camera produces “optomap” photos or angiograms of about 82% of the retina. These optomap images provide superior visibility of the retinal periphery allowing us to see, document, show you, and follow pathology that could not be seen with traditional eye cameras. The optomap exam is quick and painless and combined with the thorough eye exams our doctors are trained to provide this advanced technology offers a new level of diagnostic confidence. We are proud and happy to offer this service to our patients. The optomap is fast, easy, and comfortable for anyone. The entire image process consists of you looking into the device one eye at a time. The optomap images are shown immediately on a computer screen so we can review it with you.
