The Tomey MR-6000 is the ultimate time-saving and space-saving device, as this multifunction unit has six functions in one, replacing the need for multiple, separate machines.
The 6 functions are:
- Topography, 2. Refraction, 3. Keratometry, 4. Tonometry, 5. Pachymetry, 6. Dry eye analysis tool. But what does each function do?
- Topography
Topography measures the surface of the eye (the cornea) giving important & detailed information.
The MR-6000 does this using 16 mires rings to examine an area of 8mm diameter. Several map types including fourier analysis gives to a wide range of corneal shape displaying opportunities.
- Refraction
Refraction measures how light bends as it moves through your cornea and the lens to determine if you need corrective lenses and at what prescription[1].
The Quick Refraction Mode on the MR-6000 allows refraction values within seconds despite fixation loss e.g. for patients with nystagmus, children or uncooperative patients.
- Keratometry
Keratometry is the measurement of the corneal curvature; corneal curvature determines the power of the cornea.
With the Tomey MR-6000 you can get accurate measurement values for Refraction and Keratometry due to an improved measurement principle.
- Tonometry
Tonometry is a diagnostic test that measures the pressure inside your eye, which is called intraocular pressure (IOP). This machine uses a new generation of air flow technology causes a friendly and gentle air puff.
- Pachymetry
Pachymetry is used to measure the depth of the thinnest point of your cornea. On the Tomey MR-6000 the automated IOP correction takes account of pachymetry values to get reliable and accurate IOP values.
- Dry eye analysis tool
The combination of 4 examinations gives a detailed impression of the health of the patients´ ocular surface. With this machine you can observe the blinking frequency, tear meniscus height, hyperemia and meibomian glands all at one time.
