QuickSee Wavefront Refractor PlenOptika
PlenOptika, a biomedical technology company based in Allston, Mass., is introducing the QuickSee Wavefront Refractor. The device will be supplied to U.S. optometrists and other vision care professionals directly via Ethis HealthTech.
Features: With its compact design and fast, accurate measurements, the portable QuickSee Wavefront Refractor is designed to streamline the optometrists’ clinical workflow, declutter the practice environment and improve patients’ experience.
The technology inside the QuickSee—upon final FDA registration, an FDA 510(k)-exempt Class I medical device—has been clinically evaluated in more than 1,200 eyes in five studies and documented in five peer-reviewed publications and conference abstracts.
Unlike conventional autorefractors, the QuickSee Wavefront Refractor uses wavefront aberrometry to precisely determine refractive errors, enabling highly accurate, objective measurements anywhere. The device combines the accuracy of gold-standard benchmarks with unmatched intuitive design that enables the simultaneous measurement of both eyes within 10 seconds and will be offered at a highly economical price point. QuickSee features a binocular, open view design to help reduce instrument-induced myopia and a handheld intuitive design that provides ease of use for optometrists.
The QuickSee offers workflow benefits, and its small footprint opens up possibilities for the use of other desktop devices in the lane. Its portability facilitates pediatric and elder-care applications.

NuPolar Infinite Gray Lenses Younger Optics
Younger Optics is introducing NuPolar Infinite Gray, a polarized sunwear lens that is very light gray when it needs to be, and very dark gray when the wearer needs it most.
Features: NuPolar Infinite Gray lenses are for patients who want a high-efficiency polarized Rx sunwear lens that can function seamlessly from shade to bright sunlight and anything in between. The darkness of the lens is controlled with a new UV-responsive photochromic technology that offers the widest range of light absorption of any polarized photochromic lens.
The transmission from light to dark ranges from approximately 35 percent transmittance in low-UV surroundings to about 9 percent in very bright, reflective environments.
