Tear meniscus-height
Evaluation of the tear film quantity With an integrated
measuring guide and various magnification tools, you
can measure the tear meniscus height and evaluate its
characteristics along the lower lid margin. The result is
saved in the patient file.

Lipid layer
Evaluation of the lipid layer thickness
The color and structure of the lipid layer is visible and
can be recorded. This shows the lipid layer thickness,
which correlates with tear film evaporation and dry eye
symptoms. If the lipid layer is too thin or absent, the
tear evaporation rate and the tear film instability
increase.

TF dynamics
Evaluating the particle flow characteristics
A video recording with up to 32 images per second
enables the observation of the tear film particle flow
characteristics and shows the tear film viscosity.
