AUTO INTERFEROMETRY AUTOMATED LIPID LAYER ANALYSIS The IDRA software analyses lipid layer thickness and allows to understand the functionality of Meibomian Glands. It is possible to carry out a follow up after MG treatment detecting an Increase in secretion. AUTO TEAR MENISCUS Low tear production may resuit in aqueous tear deficiency (ATD) and cause dry eye symptoms. However, measuring the tear volume is difficult since the methods available nowadays are invasive and irritating. The analysis of the thickness of the tear meniscus is automatic. AUTO NIBUT Thanks to one single video, the physician can gain lots of information: - Automatic NIBUT - Average of more than one value - Graph to understand the trend of tear film stability during the video - Tear topography that shows ail breaking the tear film during time. EYE BLINK Most blinks are spontaneous, occurring regularly with no external stimulus. However, a reflex blink can occur in response to external stimuli such as a bright light, a sudden loud noise, or an object approaching towards the eyes. MEIBOGRAPHY The System automatically analyses the images taken through a sensitive infrared camera (NIR) to locate the Meibomian Glands in a guided way: - An exam valid both for the upper and the lower eyelids - Automatic percentage of the Meibomian Gland loss area 3D MEIBOGRAPHY The revolutionary introduction of the 3D Meibomian Gland imaging gives two big advantages. Firstly, it enables to confirm the presence of abnormal glands compared to a healthy subject in a 3D view; secondly, it provides a clear image to share with the patients, to help explain the potential reason of their discomfort.
