Hoya and Oculera launch VR Visual Field Analyser

Hoya Vision Care and med-tech company Oculera have partnered to introduce virtual reality technology and visual field analysis to the UK and Ireland’s eye care professionals (ECPs).

Designed to save ECPs time, space and money, the Oculera Visual Field Analyser is said to use state-of-the-art technology to detect and diagnose early glaucoma, age-related macular degeneration, scotomas or brain abnormalities.

The patient headset eradicated the need for a dark room, eye patches or chin rest equipment with an easy-to-use, low-maintenance and portable design.

Martin Batho, managing director of Hoya Lens UK, said: ‘We are delighted to be partnering with Oculera to offer this incredible technology to our independent customers at an affordable price.
