Expert in early glaucoma detection and follow-up
With the Octopus 600, Haag-Streit has introduced a new perimetry technology
that makes use of a TFT-based monitor to produce stimuli and background.
This allows the instrument to display complex stimuli such as Pulsar,
which would otherwise not be possible with cupola-based
or projection type perimeters.
Combining both Pulsar early glaucoma detection
and standard white-on-white perimetry,
the instrument is capable of covering the most important stages
of disease progression, allowing for early diagnosis and follow-up.
Early diagnosis and standard white-on-white perimetry in one device.
The Octopus 600 extends the successful Haag-Streit product range
of visual field analyzers, combining the Pulsar method
for early glaucoma detection and stan- dard white-on-white perimetry
for long term follow- up in a single compact, standalone device.
Fast and reliable Pulsar test method for early glaucoma detection
Various studies over the past decades have shown that contrast sensitivity
and flicker sensitivity are af- fected in glaucoma.
The Pulsar method combines both by presenting a contrast-modulated ring target
that flickers at 10 Hz in counterphase, resulting in the method of choice
for early glaucoma detection.
Novel perimeter technology for early diagnosis
and standard white-on-white perimetry in one compact sized instrument.
Easy, straight forward operation with touch screen optimized
and networkable EyeSuite® software that saves you and your patients time.
World innovation in perimetry – fast and reliable Pulsar test method
for early glaucoma detection.
A perfect team: Early diagnosis and standard white-on-white perimetry
in one device
The Octopus® 600 extends the successful HAAGSTREIT product range
of visual field analysers combining the Pulsar method for early glaucoma detection
and standard white-on-white perimetry for long term follow-up in one compact
and standalone device.
It is the first visual field analyser that performs standard white-on-white perimetry
on an integrated flicker-free screen, using TFT and LED technology.
Standalone or network integration
Small footprint
Maintenance-free LED background illumination
No darkroom required
Perimetry simplified
The same, easy to use EyeSuite® software already known
from the Octopus® 900 has been further streamlined
to operate the Octopus® 600.
The intuitive concept of both the examination
and viewing screens are the key components
of the new touch screen optimized user interface.
Results can be analyzed on the device immediately after the examination
is finished or sent to a printer, EMR system or DICOM server.
The Octopus® 600 can produce reliable visual field results
with minimal user training and it doesn’t take an expert to run a reliable field.
It just takes 3 simple steps:
1. Select patient
2. Choose Pulsar or standard white-on-white
3. Hit the start button
The streamlined workflow increases patient throughput while
still making use of proven Octopus® concepts such as fixation control
to obtain reliable results.
World innovation in perimetry – fast and reliable Pulsar test method
for early glaucoma detection
Pulsar is a patented flicker stimulus, displaying a ring pattern
with different contrast levels in counter-phase. Independent studies confirm,
the test is easy – even pleasant – to take,
while being both sensitive and specific in the early detection of Glaucoma.
Alternating of image and counter-image at 10 Hz
Stimulus duration 500 ms
Modulated in contrast and spatial resolution
No sharp edges or dominant directions
Unlike other early diagnostic methods that challenge the patient
with hard to distinguish answering criteria,
Pulsar requires no more than a simple click for every target that appears.
Invented in 1998 by Prof. González de la Rosa, the method
has been extensively validated and refined to result in today’s „Pulsar T30W“ test.
Haag-Streit provided this new method to independent research groups.
The results were very convincing. Consequently,
Haag-Streit has created a new perimeter based on this exciting method
for early glaucoma detection: The Octopus® 600.
