DEVICE MEASURES CONCENTRATION OF CAROTENOIDS
MacuHealth introduced LifeMeter, a portable, non-invasive device that uses reflection spectroscopy to measure the concentration of carotenoids in the patient’s fingertip within three minutes. The LifeMeter level is significantly correlated with the patient’s macular pigment level, circulating carotenoids, and the concentration of these nutrients in other bodily tissues, such as the heart and brain. The science behind the device is supported by over 30 peer-reviewed publications, according to MacuHealth.

ABERROMETRY MEASUREMENT SYSTEM
WaveFront Dynamics announced the commercial launch of its dynamic aberrometry measurement system. The WaveDyn Vision Analyzer (pronounced WaveD“eye”n) captures a video of the eye’s dynamic optical system over time. The device offers high-resolution, dynamic measurement capabilities and provides nine ocular measurements: wavefront aberrometry, objective refraction, corneal topography, corneal surface irregularity, keratometry, iris image, pupil dynamics, subjective refraction confirmation, and accommodation range measurement.

ADVANCES TO MYOPIA DIAGNOSTIC DEVICE
Haag-Streit announced the Lenstar Myopia now includes the Age-Matched Myopia Control (AMMC) framework by Dr. Hakan Kaymak. The framework provides data on the eye’s expected length growth, considering age and gender. The eye care professional can compare axial length growth speed to a demographic database. It provides normal length growth in the same visualization, providing a therapy goal tailored to the age and state of the patient.
