181 EW PRODUCT SHOWCASE April 2016 Email your product photo and a description to stacy@eyeworld.org. Volk Optical introduced the iNview to easily acquire wide-angle digital color fundus images. The indirect ophthalmoscopic lens attachment is compatible with iPhone and iPod, and works in conjunction with the free Volk iNview app to take retinal images for general visualization, patient education, referrals, and record retention. The device offers both manual capture and a convenient auto-capture feature. In auto-capture, the iNview app takes a rapid series of images, running a proprietary algorithm to present a collection of the best-focused and defined images for review. Volk Optical www.volk.com iNview Topcon Medical Systems launched the IS-5500 Instrument Stand. The IS-5500 features a white LED overhead lamp and a smaller and more compact design that brings the control panel and the charging wells down toward the user, facilitating their reach. An illuminated liquid-proof membrane control panel makes it easy to operate in darkened environments and provides full control of the stand, chair and room light functions. Topcon Medical Systems www.topconmedical.com IS-5500 Instrument Stand Friedman Double-Ended Femto Incision Dissector Rhein Medical introduced the Friedman Double-Ended Femto Incision Dissector, developed in coordination with Neil Friedman, MD. The angled, tapered end enables easy and gentle dissection of all corneal incisions without the risk of creating false planes or damaging intact tissue. The 90-degree paddle end is designed to accurately find and gently open plane 2 of clear corneal cataract incisions. Rhein Medical www.rheinmedical.com Reichert Technologies launched the Ocular Response Analyzer G3, the only tonometer capable of measuring corneal hysteresis. This third generation device also provides the patented Corneal Compensated IOP measurement. Its fully automated alignment and unique chinrest-less design make for a fast and simple measurement that can be delegated to a trained technician. Reichert Technologies www.reichert.com/ora Ocular Response Analyzer G3 Patient Education Concepts (PEC) launched its Internet-based informed consent service. With MyEye Consent, cataract and refractive counselors can assign, monitor, and document the viewing, understanding, and completion of any one of PEC's informed consent videos. If the patient has questions, he/she can enter them at the end of the program. An alert is sent to the assigning counselor who can choose to answer questions prior to the surgery or on the patient's surgery day. Practice personnel can also determine if patients have completed the informed consent forms on the day of surgery and scan the form into the patient's medical records. Patient Education Concepts www.patientedconcepts.com MyEye Consent Oculus announced that the Pentacam AXL received 510(k) clearance of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. The device includes anterior segment tomography and optical biometry. Its IOL calculation software includes all standard formulas, ray tracing formulas, and formulas for treated corneas. Toric IOL calculations are based on the total corneal refractive power, which includes posterior corneal measurements. The device includes the Belin/Ambrósio Enhanced Ectasia Display (early detection of corneal ectasia) and densi- tometric evaluation for every cataract patient. Oculus www.pentacamaxl.com Pentacam AXL
