Easyfield
Oculus
Oculus is debuting the Oculus Easyfield VR, a virtual reality headset that conducts visual field screenings and visual field threshold exams as well as color vision, contrast sensitivity and stereo vision screenings.
Features: The Oculus Easyfield VR is a next generation virtual reality solution for ECPs. SMARTTracker 2 Fixation Tracking technology also ensures reliable reproducible results due to its highly accurate eye tracker monitoring and patient fixation. Practitioners can start and monitor the exam process from a Surface Pro tablet without requiring an internet connection. Easyfield VR shares a common database and Patient Data Management software with Oculus diagnostic devices. The headset design secures around the patient’s head and features audio-guided examinations in English and Spanish, so patients can complete their exams autonomously.
SPARK 4W
Shamir
Shamir Spark 4W offers an enhanced experience for both patients and eyecare professionals.
Features: Shamir introduces the Spark 4W, the advanced digital electro-optic measurement system based on sophisticated 3D stereo vision technology and artificial intelligence (AI) elements. Shamir Spark 4W enables eyecare professionals (ECPs) to obtain precise and automatic measurements of their patients’ pupillary distance (PD) in just one click. The new system on the Spark 4W builds on the advanced capabilities of Spark 4. Since it operates on Wi-Fi, the new standalone system can be located anywhere in the store; it carries an integrated CPU. The Shamir Spark 4W also comes with a handy new app, Shamir Spark Remote, which enables ECPs to quickly capture the PD using any mobile device (smartphone, tablet or laptop) and complete the process by filling in the additional parameters once the patient has left the store, providing ECPs with optimal flexibility and ease of use. Designed for uncompromising ophthalmic measurement, the smart new system retains all the benefits of its predecessor. Shamir’s state-of-the-art AI vision algorithm detects and processes 192 facial landmarks provided by the sophisticated camera system, featuring six high-resolution 24-megapixel camera sensors that deliver ultra-sharp images; two active near-infrared cameras that allow an unobstructed view of the patient’s pupils; and four additional color cameras which take crisp images of any eyewear, including sunglasses.
