Visionix recently launched an exciting upgrade its Optovue Solix FullRange and Essential OCT/OCT-A systems, which, in addition to performing anterior segment, glaucoma and retinal scans, now also offer corneal topography. The company says the addition of the new module will allow clinicians to obtain a wide range of data and precise measurements to aid contact lens fitting, pre- and post-surgical planning and monitoring and sooner detection of keratoconus.

Here are some key benefits of the corneal topography module, according to Visionix:

  • The ability to track epithelium healing and refractive power outcomes may facilitate more efficient monitoring after corneal surgeries.
  • Detailed topographic and epithelial analysis can assist clinicians in detecting early signs of keratoconus.
  • OCT topography allows for a thorough examination of both anterior and posterior corneal surfaces, differentiating between epithelial cells and the underlying stromal tissue.

Clinicians will be able to generate customizable reports on their updated Solix OCT/OCT-A systems that can display up to six different types of maps at once, including visualizations such as axial, tangential and elevation tomography maps of both anterior and posterior surfaces, the company notes.

Any clinician with the Optovue Solix FullRange or Solix Essential OCT/OCT-A system can add the corneal topography software to their existing device—no need to purchase a new system or additional equipment.

Optometrists attending Vision Expo West in Las Vegas this weekend can view live demonstrations of the device on-site in the exhibit hall.
