Oculus and BHVI work together on Myopia Master instruments

Brien Holden Vision Institute (BHVI) and Oculus have agreed to incorporate BHVI’s algorithms for tracking and estimating refractive error into Oculus’ Myopia Master ophthalmic instruments.

The agreement will see BHVI’s research translated into instruments that optometrists across the globe can use to manage myopia.

Head of the Myopia Program at BHVI Professor Padmaja Sankaridurg said: ‘Using large and expansive datasets generated on our own and in collaboration with our research partners across the globe, the team at BHVI is continually engaged in expanding the state of knowledge as well as bringing solutions to reverse the rising myopia epidemic. We are delighted for the opportunity to work together with leading ophthalmic industry such as Oculus to translate some of this knowledge.’
