Ophthalmic visualization technology developer ArcScan, Inc., recently launched its Keratoconus Evaluator for the Insight® 100 — the company’s FDA 510(k)-cleared precision ultrasound device for imaging and biometry of the eye.
The Keratoconus Evaluator is reportedly an automated, computerized algorithm for differentiation of normal and keratoconic corneas based on epithelial and stromal thickness data, making it especially valuable for deciding whether LASIK is appropriate for potential patients.
According to ArcScan, the Keratoconus Evaluator will be an integral part of the Insight 100’s software platform when the device enters the market in the first quarter of 2017. The Insight 100 is indicated for refractive surgical planning and evaluation of anterior segment pathology by providing images and measurements of anterior chamber depth, angle-to-angle width, individual corneal layers, sulcus-to-sulcus width, and more with micron level precision and repeatability.
