Coburn Technologies Introduces the Huvitz HVS-1 Vision Screener to Their Diagnostic Line of Products

Coburn Technologies, a global leader in ophthalmic lens processing and exclusive distributor of Huvitz optical diagnostic equipment in the United States, announced the addition of the Huvitz HVS-1 Vision Screener to their catalog of Huvitz product offerings. HVS-1 is a valuable tool primarily intended for pediatric use, the first of its kind among Coburn’s ophthalmic line of products. It performs rapid vision screening for infants and toddlers in less than a second with high accuracy. The device is also suitable for elderly patients and patients with mobility issues.

“We continue to grow our pre-testing and exam lane offerings from Huvitz because the technology consistently demonstrates outstanding performance,” stated Bruno Yun, Senior Product & Application Manager. “For pediatric practices, or practices interested in expanding their patient base to kids, HVS-1 is a worthwhile investment to incorporate fast, accurate measurements of refractive abnormalities like myopia, astigmatism, hyperopia, and strabismus,” he continued.

The HVS-1 Vision Screener is a non-contact, handheld device that takes quick and comfortable refractive measurements. Attractive lights and sounds assist in focusing the patient for precise measurement capture. The patient is viewed through a bright screen with a wide viewing angle where results are displayed after capture. HVS-1 is easily compatible with the standard DICOM format and test results can be loaded onto a PC.

“Huvitz has been a trusted partner of ours for 14 years. Their technology continues to impress us and, most importantly, our customers,” concluded Yun.

See a live demonstration of the Huvitz HVS-1 Vision Screener at Coburn’s booth at Vision Expo West in Las Vegas, September 18-20 in the Eyecare Neighborhood.
