Combine the best of two worlds with the new OCULUS Pentacam^® Cornea OCT

Benefit from previously unattainable precision

The new OCULUS Pentacam® Cornea OCT combines proven Scheimpflug technology with ultra high-resolution cornea OCT technology to unlock a new dimension of analytical power in assessing corneal disease and changes.

Distinguishing features of the OCULUS Pentacam^® Cornea OCT

Unique combination of Scheimpflug and OCT technology
The dual implementation of parallel scan geometry and spectral domain OCT technology makes for images of exquisite sharpness due to the perpendicular incidence of the measuring beams. This setup makes optimal use of the axial and lateral resolution, bringing even the finest structural details of the cornea into view. This way you always get the utmost in image quality for your diagnostic work.

High resolution and precision
Spectral Domain OCT uses many different wavelengths simultaneously to achieve an extremely high axial resolution, yielding corneal images of unprecedented detail and clarity.

Further major benefits for you

PNS (Pentacam Nucleus Staging)
This unique objective staging tool will help you as a surgeon to assess the severity of cataracts and estimate the required amount of phako energy preoperatively.

Corneal optical densitometry represented in a whole-cornea colour map
allows you to examine and determine the thickness of individual layers and zones.

IOL Calculator with integrated data base
includes regular updates with all relevant parameters from IOL manufacturers and keeps you always up to date.

IOL calculation formulas for any corneal shape
enables you to calculate IOLs for almost any patient.

Benefits the OCULUS Pentacam^® Cornea OCT will give you in your daily work

Added safety thanks to high-resolution images
The Pentacam® Cornea OCT enables you to detect and diagnose disease progression significantly earlier than before. This is made possible by high-resolution images offering a detailed view of all layers of the cornea and helping you ensure precision in your diagnostic work and treatment planning.

Efficiency thanks to combined measurements and quick evaluation
Our innovative technology saves you valuable time. Combined measurements and quick evaluations enable you to quickly and reliably identify the cause of anomalies detected. This will help you improve your diagnostic efficiency and give you added safety in dealing with your patients. In simple words: You will be able to focus on what matters most and ensure the highest possible quality in your work.

Improved early detection thanks to established software solutions
The combination of Scheimpflug and OCT technology is being made available in established software solutions that include modules such as the Belin/Ambrosio Enhanced Ectasia Display. This will assist you in interpreting results and enable you to improve your early detection performance. The Belin ABCD enables you in many cases to detect and diagnose progression much earlier than does conventional keratoconus classification based on the posterior corneal surface. It provides you with a quicker and simpler overview of the situation.

The Fast Screening Report provides a comprehensive overview
The Fast Screening Report provides you with a comprehensive overview of the condition of your patient’s eyes. It is based on a variety of parameters that have all been extensively explored and validated in clinical studies in regard to specific pathological eye conditions. It will enable you to quickly and reliably arrive at the correct diagnosis.
