US Introduction of FORUM Glaucoma Workplace from ZEISS
ZEISS announces the US release of a new glaucoma diagnostic and management software application, FORUM Glaucoma Workplace, at the 2013 Annual Meeting of the American Academy of Ophthalmology (AAO). FORUM Glaucoma Workplace, an application available in the FORUM data management system from ZEISS, supports efficient clinical assessment at the point of care by delivering exam data in new clinically relevant ways.
With FORUM and the new FORUM Glaucoma Workplace, ZEISS provides doctors with an integrated solution that allows them to see glaucoma in a completely different light by bringing together in new ways the structural and functional data and analyses from gold standard diagnostic devices, says Dr. Ludwin Monz, President and CEO, Carl Zeiss Meditec AG.
FORUM Glaucoma Workplace provides off-instrument review of data from the Humphrey Field Analyzer (HFA ) in the exam lane, and virtually anywhere in the practice. The application also enables interactive functional Guided Progression Analysis (GPA ) to help identify patients who are progressing and at risk for further visual field loss. With interactive GPA, doctors can adjust GPA parameters as needed, change baselines, reset baselines after surgery, or exclude outliers. Through FORUM, clinicians have immediate access to visual field data, OCT scans, and fundus images to support their glaucoma diagnosis and management. The HFA-CIRRUS Combined Report simplifies interpretation and provides at-a-glance assessment of structural and functional data.
With FORUM Glaucoma Workplace, ZEISS has truly created something exceptional. FORUM enables me to view structure and function together using dynamic and malleable data. Not only does it enhance my clinical capabilities, it expands them, says Steven D. Vold, MD, President and Medical Director, Vold Vision.
Introduction of workflow and review package for small practices: FORUM GO from ZEISS
The popular ZEISS FORUM data management system is now also offered in a preconfigured package, FORUM GO, that is ideal for small practices. FORUM GO is a simple and affordable data management system that allows eye care professionals fast and efficient review of patient exam data, diagnostic analyses and reports in the exam lane.
The need to integrate EMR and data management systems is not only limited to larger or multi-site practices. With FORUM GO, we now offer a sound and expandable data management solution that perfectly covers the needs of a smaller practice, says Dr. Ludwin Monz.
Clinicians can access examination data and images from up to three ZEISS diagnostic instruments and review from up to three viewing stations simultaneously. FORUM GO can be expanded and upgraded should additional connectivity be needed. FORUM GO comes preinstalled on a computer with a 23-inch HD display. Also available is a FORUM GO glaucoma version which comes with FORUM Glaucoma Workplace preinstalled.
Designed to work together: ZEISS Cataract Suite presented with new CALLISTO eye OR management system
The ZEISS Cataract Suite designed to work together for enhanced surgical precision and greater efficiency will be presented at the ZEISS booth #1919 during the 2013 AAO. The ZEISS Cataract Suite integrates the fastest, most accurate optical biometer1, the IOLMaster 500, with the gold standard OPMI LUMERA 700 surgical microscope and the new computer-assisted surgery system, CALLISTO eye , enabling cataract surgeons to precisely and efficiently align toric intraocular lenses (IOLs) for optimal patient outcomes.
The ZEISS Cataract Suite is ahead of the game in optics, precision measurements, and alignment of IOLs. CALLISTO eye increases our efficiency without compromising patient safety. For me it's the perfect combination, says Richard Davidson, MD, Vice Chair for Quality and Clinical Affairs, Department of Ophthalmology at the University of Colorado Eye Center.
The individual components of the ZEISS Cataract Suite are optimally matched and integrated to meet the highest standards and to support the most efficient workflow. The surgical workflow begins with the IOLMaster 500 which delivers a measurement success ratio of up to 20% higher than that of other optical biometers2,3,4. The OPMI LUMERA 700, voted #1 surgical microscope by ophthalmic surgeons5, offers unprecedented visualization of the eye with brilliant red reflex from its patented stereo coaxial illumination (SCI ) technology and exceptional clarity through ZEISS apochromatic optics. The CALLISTO eye computer-assisted cataract surgery system works seamlessly with the OPMI LUMERA projecting visual guides into the eyepieces of the surgical microscope based on the biometric data from the IOLMaster. These visual aids enable surgeons to see the placement of incisions and LRIs (limbal relaxing incisions), the exact size, shape and placement of capsulorhexis and, for the first time, take into account the patient's true visual axis when placing and aligning the IOL within 3 degrees of intended target6. CALLISTO eye also provides easy access to patient information in the OR,
