Integrated Technologies To Streamline Your Practice

Integrated Technologies To Streamline Your Practice

If you want options that will make a difference for your patients, staff, and practice overall, look no further than the VX 40 wavefront lens analyzer, VX 130+ multimodal anterior segment screener, and VX 65 digital phoropter. These three integrated technologies made a difference for Johann J. Schlager, O.D., co-owner of Bear Developmental Optometry, in Merced, CA and streamlined their practice.

On the VX 40, Dr. Schlager says “Our staff enjoy the ease of use and how quickly lenses can be neutralized.”

Dr. Schlager appreciates the VX 40’s ability to measure all types of lenses consistently and precisely. “Sometimes lenses may be difficult to see markings to determine what type of lenses are being used, but the VX 40 auto detects the type of lens,” he says. He adds that it’s great with troubleshooting. “It allows us to pick a point on the lens and gives us the effective power and induced prism.”

Dr. Schlager appreciates several aspects of the VX 130+, part of the multimodal VX 100 series family from Visionix, and calls out the integrated topography, tomography, angle measurement, and pachymetry as being particularly valuable features.

“Many of our patients have high astigmatism, but sometimes it is difficult to detect subclinical keratoconus,” he says. The VX 130+ has saved Dr. Schlager valuable time during refraction as well as follow-ups to determine whether patients have keratoconus. “Being able to quickly glance at the patient’s angle and corneal thickness has allowed us to better assess the risk of glaucoma in younger patients, and [allows for] better management of drops in our older patients.”

VX 65: THE ULTIMATE VERSATILITY IN REFRACTION

On the refracting front, Dr. Schlager has had a stellar experience with the VX 65 and it integrates easily with the VX 40 and VX 130+. “The ability to quickly transfer the information from the VX 40 and VX 130+ has been essential,” he says of the accurate, time-saving equipment. “No more human error.” His patients are impressed as well. “Being able to quickly switch from subjective refraction to lensometry reading blows patients away,” he says.

VISIONIX: THE TOTAL PACKAGE

While he has found value for his staff and patients in each system individually, Dr. Schlager most values their cumulative effect on his practice. “Each machine is great on its own, but what makes them stand out is the seamless integration and ecosystem that Visionix has created.”

On the VX 130+, Dr. Schlager says he finds great value in “the efficiency of data collected within such a short amount of time, plus small footprint it saves in the pretesting room.”
