Fundus cameras help in early detection and monitoring of chronic eye
diseases such as Diabetic Retinopathy (DR), cataract, glaucoma, among others.
These cameras are used to capture images of the fundus or the back of the eye.
They are equipped with intricate microscopes enabling the photography of optic
disc, retina, and macula.
Advanced
Technology
The Hybrid Kowa VX-20 offers high quality, versatile, retinal imaging.
The improved functionalities of this device include a-touch-of-a-button
solution, which allows the operator to easily switch between non-mydriatic and
mydriatic mode. Such devices are equipped with an easy-to-use wide color LCD
touch screen that facilitates easy patient observation. Such devices enable simple
singled-handed operation.
VX-20 has superior quality retinal imaging with several photography
modes: Fundus Auto Fluorescence (FAF), Red-Free (RF), mydriatic color,
non-mydriatic color, Fluorescein Angiography (FA), small pupil , and anterior.
Stable chassis facilitate easier patient alignment and LED eye level mark makes
eye testing in a darkroom convenient.
These devices enable saving of the captured images on a compact flash
memory card and the images can be directly printed. They are also equipped with
instant image filing software. The VX-20 offers mydriatic and FA modes with 50°
and 30° views and non-mydriatic with 45° and 27°. Moreover, it has an FAF mode
that further assists in the diagnostic investigation of retinal health and
detection of Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD).
The machine is linked to VK-2 software to provide outstanding fundus
images. Photographic settings can be adjusted using simple operations, which
makes these devices patient friendly. In the mydriatic color, FAF, RF, and FA
modes, photography under monitor observation can reduce a patient’s
photophobia. The capture mode enables users put in IDs and display the
alignment of captured images.
