Easyscan
A device manufacturer now benefitting from direct presence in the UK was Easyscan, with its scanning laser ophthalmoscope retinal scanner of the same name.
The retinal scanner is billed as an alternative to OCT, which business development manager Graham Avery said was an often-underutilised piece of equipment in high street optometric practice. The Easyscan is a significant step up from a fundus camera, but with enough features and benefits to rival the practical elements of an OCT device.
The trump card held by the device is the elimination of dilation, with detailed images available through a pupil size of just 1.5mm, with minimal skill on the part of the operator and no discomfort for the patient. It can also be used in a lit room, making it easy to install in practice.
