Overview

Manufactured by OPTOPOL Technology S.A., the PTS 1000 Automated Perimeter is a modern diagnostic instrument for precise and fast testing for field of vision. The closed type examination bowl provides a single solution for Goldmann kinetic and static perimetry, the PTS 1000 offers a wide range of strategies and analysis tools combined with an intuitive interface. The intuitive user interface and ergonomic design make it easy to use.

Features
Kinetic and Static Testing
Five Goldmann stimuli sizes are included, as well as adjustable stimuli velocity with silent operation, make static testing easily performed even during the most challenging patient exam. Each test utilizes a thresholding algorithm for faster exam time with accurate results.

Four Stimuli Colors
The PC based system offers white, blue, red, green stimuli on white or yellow backgrounds. The standard blue on yellow (SWAP) strategy method is also included. Red may be utilized for diagnosis of toxic vision losses.

Analysis Tools
A wide range of analysis tools are available including a variety of graphs, binocular capabilities, Bebie curve, patient condition, screening, threshold, 3-zone, pattern deviation and many more.

Video Monitoring
The built in digital camera monitors the eye movement while positioning the patient and during the exam. The continuous fixation tracks the patient’s pupil, even after the patient loses fixation, using the blind spot attraction mechanism. Using the built-in maps, exams are made simple.  Depending on the preferred areas to test, custom layouts are available.

Software Options
The PC based software with a MS Windows system has a simple, intuitive user interface with powerful analysis tools and an advanced, fast precise threshold algorithm. Other features include the extended comparison module, Printout Manager and customizing settings.

Printout Manager
The Printout Manager module has the benefit to use a predefined template or custom printouts, depending on your organization needs.  The custom option may vary from choosing the content to the layout style.

Printers and Projectors
If your imaging requirements include color or black-and-white prints in a variety of sizes, Canon printers offer the perfect blend of print quality, easy-of-use, speed, and cost-effective operation.
