KERATRON PICCOLO
|
Optikon announces the launch of the new Keratron™ Piccolo corneal topographer expanding the range of the Keratron™ and Keratron™ Scout product line.
Keratron™ Piccolo uses the latest technology for miniaturization, which also improves its reliability. Keratron™ Piccolo has a single configuration consisting of the Piccolo video keratoscope, its docking base and software. It is designed to attach easily to most slit lamps, as does the Keratron™ Scout. The Piccolo offers the same features as the Keratron™ and Keratron™ Scout except portable use by battery and infra-red pupillometry. All three topographers use the same the software platform. The Piccolo is an alternative to expensive, complicated instruments. It is a modern, simple, easy-to-use unit, at a price that any professional can afford. Until now corneal topography has been considered a technique reserved for the most advanced professionals. From now on, Keratron™ Piccolo will be acknowledged as a new generation corneal topographer at a price comparable with an ordinary slit lamp. |
LocaL curvature and axial maps
KERATOCONUS The local curvature maps reveal the slightest details that are hidden by axial maps, thus allowing a careful diagnosis even in presence of peripheral or small localized phenomena. |
Height maps (Spherical offset)
HEIGHTS, 3D The height is represented with reference to a sphere that can be positioned by the operator. Height difference maps (for example post- minus-preoperative) can be obtained after matching at three reference points, so to cancel the relevant “tilt”. |
CorneaL WaveFront
VISUAL ACUITY The simulations of visual acuity pictures (Visus), the PSF (Point Spread Function) and the MTF (Modulation Transfer Function) which relate to contrast sensitivity are invaluable tools for the assessment of the corneal refraction. The adoption of corneal aberration evaluation has broken new ground in the links with excimer lasers for custom ablation. The cornea is analysed to measure the corneal wavefront. The Zernike polynomials, which allow analysis of individual aberrations and the analysed pupil size and position, are user-selectable. |
CONTACT LENS
Fluorescein pattern simulation of most of international contact lens manufacturers geometries. Tilting to simulate lid pressure. Lens displacement in any position. Eccentricity measured at 6 and 8 mm, over-refraction calculator. Personalized auto-fit for customized lens. Adjustable clearance scale. Link to third party software. |
Miniaturization: Keratron® technology for everyone.
. Portable and compact . Portable cable supplied. . Fits on any slit lamp. . Keratron capability;same precision,same repeatability,same corneal coverage. . Eye position is controlled using PC monitor image. |
By means of a slide adaptor plugged in the tonometer socket, the operator can use the joystick of the lamp in order to precisely align the instrument.
