Refractor 900 enables the user to import objective refraction data from peripheral devices via a converter box or an EMR (Electronic Medical Record) system. The export of the subjective refraction data to an EMR system can be done via a serial port or Ethernet connection.
The values for the sphere and cylinder can be adjusted increments of 1/8, 1/4, and whole diopters.
Spherical power is between +20 and -20 dpt. Cylinder power is between 0 and +/- 8 dpt.
Please refer to the Instructions for Use for full cleaning guidelines.
Patient-touchable parts, such as the forehead rest, must be disinfected prior to every new patient examination to prevent transmission of infections.
For other parts of the device, regular dusting is sufficient. More stubborn dirt can be removed using a clean towel dampened with water or alcohol at a maximum of 70%. We recommend cleaning the complete device once per week.
