Myopia Master®
The Myopia Master® is an efficient device which combines autorefractor, keratometry, and axial length measurement of the eye using a quick and non-invasive method. In addition to its unique metric capabilities, the Myopia Master® software supports clinical decision-making and ongoing practitioner-to-patient communication. Overall, the Myopia Master® is a unique and powerful tool for facilitating the growth of myopia management in practice.
Pentacam® AXL Wave
The Pentacam® AXL Wave is the first device to unite five essential diagnostic tools into a single system. It offers wavefront aberrometry of the entire eye which can provide both internal and total corneal assessment; objective refraction based on wavefront aberrometry; retroillumination for pre- and post-op checks of the crystalline lens; optical biometry for precise, contact-free axial length measurement; and Scheimpflug-based tomography, the gold standard for analyzing the anterior eye segment. The Myopia Software now supports data from both the Pentacam® AXL Wave and Myopia Master®, allowing for a flexible setup where you can expand or switch devices without losing existing data. This integration ensures seamless tracking of key progression data essential for effective myopia management, increasing both flexibility and efficiency in daily clinical workflows.

Master myopia with OCULUS
David Kern, Product Manager of the Myopia Master®: "We listened to Eye Care Professional's needs and designed and manufactured a device to efficiently manage myopia, the Myopia Master®. We aim to educate ECPs about the importance of axial length measurement but also learn vice versa. The partnership with Myopia Profile is best placed to accomplish that."
The OCULUS Myopia Master® is the world's first device to combine the important measurement methods of myopia management: axial length, refraction values and the central corneal radii. Axial length measurement today is regarded by experts as the gold standard for myopia management and a must for every myopia expert. This quick, contactless and extremely accurate measurement method is not influenced by the accommodation-status of the eye and delivers reproducible results also in children.
