Why Myopia Management now?

The increasing prevalence of myopia especially among young children is becoming a significant global health concern. Clinical and scientific literature has shown that axial length is an excellent parameter to predict and monitor the progression of myopia. Hence, optical biometers are considered essential for myopia management.

Why the AL-Scan M is an essential first step for your Myopia Management practice?

Simply add it to your practice and your platform is ready for Myopia Management.

As most facilities already have an auto refractometer, the AL-Scan M provides the other essential components for myopia management.

Easy. Quick. Accurate.

The 3D auto tracking and auto shot allow easy operation and quick measurement like an auto refractometer. The accuracy of axial length measurement is the same as the NIDEK AL-Scan that is used in cataract practices worldwide.

Visualize progression and treatment outcomes.

Measurements over time can be monitored and compared with the growth curve^*. Additionally, the MV-1^** Myopia Viewer software presents the history of treatment and patient behavior in a convenient summary. The history is important for clinical decision-making and the intuitive displays are helpful for patient and parental education.

^** A license is required for use of the MV-1. A license is included with the AL-Scan M.

Simple data integration with the MV-1 Myopia Viewer software

Data integration between the AL-Scan M and the MV-1 is simple:
After measurement, the operator can integrate the result with the existing patient list on the MV-1. If a NIDEK autorefractor is connected, the MV-1 can receive the refraction data seamlessly. Alternatively, refraction data can be manually entered.
