How the Haag Streit Compass is pointing the way

Last year I reviewed the Eidon system and was impressed with the clarity of the images easily obtained from both retinas of a patient with just one single click of a button. This year, Haag Streit UK have released the Compass which is essentially the Eidon unit with a visual fields analyser incorporated within. This allows you to take an accurate image of the fundus and to measure the sensitivity of points across the retinal view so offering essential information about the structure and function of the eye. I recently spent a day putting the instrument through its paces and found the results both easy to obtain and of excellent quality.
