Topcon Healthcare introduced into the U.S. market the Aladdin-M, which measures corneal curvature, pupil dynamics and axial length metrics and incorporates features for keratoconus screening and contact lens fitting.
Its software can document axial length measurements and track prescription changes over time, the company said in a press release.
“Aladdin-M is ideally suited to help eye care professionals combat the growing crisis of myopia,” John Trefethen, global vice president of marketing and product design for Topcon Healthcare, said in the release. “Its versatility and ease of use allow eye care professionals to easily build a myopia service within their practice, educate patients on the implications of myopia, manage their patients’ conditions and grow their service offerings.”
The company also said the device and its software, which offer a rapid capture, will help eye care professionals identify risk factors as well as show a patient’s progression and response to treatment over time.
