Top Line: Vmax Vision’s Cube functions like a conventional digital phoropter. In that sense, it can vary the optical power and cylinder axis angle without turning a knob or a dial on a phoropter. However, the Cube has a unique cube shape, and is compact and powerful.
Close Up: Unlike most digital phoropters, the Cube has no connected device such as a control module. A touch sensitive screen is integrated to the instrument. It moves all optics on demand and by touch, it presents relevant patient refraction data for the practitioner, so that decision can be made easier for the next refraction move.
The Cube packs four Jackson Crosses, selectable from 1.0D, 0.5D, 0.25D, and 0.125D. The large JCC is for the visually challenged patients, with visual acuity at 20/40 or weaker. Its smaller JCC is reserved for those capable of extreme vision, the VA can be refined as far down to as 20/10.
Vmax offers a choice of using Snellen letters to refract, or the more sensitive Vmax proprietary PSF target. The advantage of the PSF target is that it is suited to attain higher visual acuity to the limit of the patient; using the Snellen letters may miss out for those demanding 20/12 vision, Vmax said.
The traditional phoropter can take up to six months to learn. But with point spread function technology and help button instructions, training time is reduced to just two to three days and one may master it in a few short weeks. Refraction times can be cut to as much as 50 percent, when it becomes proficient in using the Cube.
Cube can be linked with either VASR or Perfectus, so that patient refraction data performed at the pre-test area can be sent to selected exam lane, waiting for a doctor to confirm and validate. Working in the refraction suite mode, one VASR can support four to five ODs refracting in different lanes. The heavy lifting of refraction was done in pre-test by a technician. The validation would only take a minute or less by the doctor.
Vital Stats: Cube is fully equipped with a digital eye chart that includes near point testing, fully digital and randomized ETDRS Snellen, Tumbling E, Landolt C, Lea, Allen, contrast sensitivity and duochrome eye chart. Cube is compatible with most electronic EHR/ EMR systems.
