Pachymeter PM1

non-contact pachymetryhand-held

The first of Occuity’s revolutionary handheld optical ophthalmic devices, the PM1 pachymeter allows both clinicians and technicians to take a corneal centre thickness measurement quickly and easily. Simple to use, the PM1 pachymeter is held in front of the subject’s eye at a comfortable working distance. To take a measurement, the operator simply touches the screen to put the pachymeter in scanning mode and holds it up to the patient’s eye. The PM1 pachymeter’s advanced Precision Optical technology provides feedback to help the operator to position the device correctly. Once aligned the PM1 pachymeter automatically captures over 200 scans each second before immediately displaying the average of these measurements along with the standard deviation (precision) figure. There is no need to anaesthetise or touch the eye, removing the risk of infection transmission and making the whole process much more comfortable, safer and quicker for both the operator and subject. The Occuity PM1 pachymeter will provide the measuring and non-contacting capabilities of existing optical desktop devices at a price point comparable to the handheld contacting ultrasound devices. A better clinician and patient experience The PM1 pachymeter’s non-contact capabilities make it totally pain-free and a much better experience for both the clinician and the patient. Accurate Measure Corneal thickness, accurately, reliably and repeatably The PM1 pachymeter’s compact design makes it easy to carry and store. You can use it handheld or if you prefer, in a slit-lamp mounted cradle, making it perfect for both clinical and non-clinical settings.
