Ocular Response Analyzer is the only tonometer that measures Corneal Hysteresis (CH), a superior predictor of glaucoma progression. Corneal Hysteresis is an indication of the biomechanical properties of the cornea diering from thickness or topography, which are geometrical attributes.
How is Corneal Hysteresis measured?
Corneal Hysteresis is the difference in the inward and outward pressure values obtained during the patented dynamic bi-directional applanation process utilized by the Ocular Response Analyzer. It is a characterization of the cornea’s ability to absorb and dissipate energy, which is a function of visco-elastic biomechanical properties of the cornea.
CPT Code 92145 published for Corneal Hysteresis.
A new CPT code, 92145, has been published specifically for the Corneal Hysteresis measurement provided by the Reichert Ocular Response Analyzer
Powerful Software Package
Enables automatic data capture of all measurements for analyzing trends, treatment efficacy, and diurnal variations with a comprehensive patient management database that simplifies record keeping. A comprehensive printout can be utilized for hard-copy results or data can be exported for use in other applications.
Unparalleled User Experience
A single touch of the intuitive user interface initiates a fully automated alignment and measurement, simultaneously displaying Corneal Compensated IOP (IOPcc), Corneal Hysteresis (CH), Goldmann correlated IOP (IOPg), and Waveform Score (WS).
Patented air pulse, maximum comfort.
Reichert’s automatic, non-linear pressure ramp customizes the air pulse, in real time, for each eye being measured. This patented feature enables the softest possible air pulse, ensuring maximum patient comfort. In a pediatric study conducted on children between the ages of 4-18 years old found, “Overall cooperation was much better with ORA (89.8%) than with Goldmann applanation (78.7%), and all the children we questioned preferred this (ORA) technique.”7
