About

vision Pad

Read full description

VisionPad is a software that turns the iPad into a visual acuity measurement tool and a complete platform for vision function testing. It makes it simple and accurate to run a wide range of visual tests, displaying optotypes โ€” letters, numbers, and symbols โ€” directly on the iPad screen. Testing distance is configurable from 40 cm to 5 meters. Available tests: - Distance and near visual acuity (letters, numbers, symbols, Snellen E) - Contrast sensitivity - Mesopic and twilight vision - Glare sensitivity and recovery time - Lens performance evaluation - Low vision tests: reading speed and eccentric fixation localization Patient management: VisionPad includes a built-in patient archive with full visit records: refraction, visual acuity, tonometry, clinical notes, and over-time progress charts. Rehabilitation exercises: Visual exercises can be prescribed and transferred to the VisionHT app via Bluetooth or QR code. Results sync automatically at the end of each session. Remote control: The VisionRemote iPhone app lets the operator control VisionPad from a distance.
