New combined Corneal Technology from NidekNICE’s recent guidelines on referrals become much easier to follow thanks to Nidek’s new combination system which brings non-contact tonometry with pachymetry in one single unit, the NT-530P. “The benefit of having key IOP measurements with pachymetry ensures that the compensated results are known before any referral is made. This new Nidek equipment uses the highly respected Scheimpflug Technique to obtain the pachymetry measurement,” said Chris Tyler, CEO of Nidek supplier, Birmingham Optical Group.
“Measuring both corneal thickness and pressure with one sleek piece of technology also enhances efficiency within the consulting room,” he added. Greater patient comfort – due to the softer and quieter air puff – is also a key feature, along with ease of use. Automatic calculation and 3D auto tracking, displayed on an integral LCD screen, allows for safe, easy and accurate measurement. “In A1, or Artificial Intelligence mode, the unit automatically detects the most appropriate value and completes the measurement. All of the options available provide the operator with the greatest ease of use and accuracy,” added Chris. Competitively priced the unit is easy to integrate into most practice management IT systems for comprehensive patient note keeping.
