Serving over 220,000 patients in Nicaragua, with more than 30,000 patients receiving health education and visiting over 46,000 rural communities. 

One of the SVOne cloud provisioning profile is expired unexpectedly earlier today. The expired provisioning profile will cause SVOne device to shut down. Our engineers are working to solve the problems and will send out a software update. Please keep your SVOne connected to Wifi for the update. We apologize for any inconveniences in the mean time. 

How the SVOne is detecting cataracts with remote Wavefront Aberrometry. 

Detecting cataracts and referring for comprehensive care:

Our wavefront refraction technology has the ability to detect early signs of cataract development. In this case, we demonstrate how our optometrists/ophthalmologists use Smart Vision Labs' telemedicine platform to detect signs of early-stage cataracts and send for a comprehensive cataract referral. 

The patient is an elderly gentleman visiting one of SVL's partner eyewear retail locations. Patient went through the wavefront refraction test, and the data was reviewed by a licensed ophthalmologist. The doctor referred the patient for cataract evaluation. There are 3 data points standing out about the patient.

1. Patient age is 75 years old, in the high possibility zone of developing cataracts. 
2. Patient's unaided Visual Acuity for both eyes is 20/200. 
3. The wavefront images for both OD and OS show symptoms of light blockage in lens pathway; indicated by the red circles.

Capture More Customers During COVID-19

What our customers are saying:

A recent report by the American Academy of Ophthalmology conducted by Lorri Wilson M.D. and others evaluated over 15 studies that tested the accuracy of autorefractor measurements as compared to more traditional retinoscopy. The study investigated findings in both cycloplegic (eyes paralyzed for the measurement) and noncycloplegic conditions for children. 

In noncycloplegic environments, only SVOne and Grand Seiko WAM were able to produce a mean difference in spherical equivalent or sphere of less than 0.25 diopters (D) from cycloplegic retinoscopy results. These devices are able to so closely reproduce these results due to their open channel design during refraction. This design allows them to then reduce accommodation errors. 

Autorefractors are a quick and accurate solution to the growing demand for eye checkups for children. With this device, we're now able reproduce clinically accurate measurements in short amounts of time. This technology will allow us to widely test large pediatric populations in anywhere from schools to remote rural areas.

The Social Distanced Vision Exam: Increasing Sales During COVID

Case Study: Detecting Amblyopia with Telemedicine

Due to the pandemic, the healthcare industry is going through a dramatic acceleration through dispersion, with the dispersion of care being delivered everywhere from the doctor's office to patient's home, pharmacies, emergent care centers, retail locations, community centers, and other various locations. Patients have more choices to pick a safe and convenient location to receive their care. In this case, we want to demonstrate how a late amblyopia patient was discovered in an optical retail location.

SVOne wavefront refraction technology has the ability to detect signs of amblyopia, also known more commonly as the "lazy eye." 

The Art of Prescribing with Telemedicine

About Dr. Lacey Dustin, OD

Since 2011, Lacey Dustin, O.D. has been providing care for approximately 100 patients per week of all ages at Harlem Vision Center, a busy clinic in an urban setting. At this location, she practices full-scope optometry with specialties including glaucoma management, diabetic ocular manifestations, cataract pre-operative and post-operative care along side of ophthalmology as well as refraction and contact lens fittings. 

Lacey Dustin, O.D. received her doctorate degree from the State University of New York College of Optometry and a Bachelor of Science from the State University of New York at Geneseo, Magna Cum Laude. Dr. Dustin also completed additional training as an optometry extern at Wenzhou Medical Hospital in China as well as Brooklyn Veterans Hospital in New York. She has done an array of volunteer work such as an optometric mission trip to El Salvador and has served providing care to the athletes in The Special Olympics.

We are delighted and lucky to be able to work alongside of her.

Detecting Anisometropia & Keratoconus with Wavefront Aberrometry

SVOne wavefront refraction technology has the ability to detect signs of Keratoconus and Anisometropia. In this case, we demonstrate how our optometrists/ophthalmologists use Smart Vision Labs' telemedicine platform to detect signs of Anisometropia and send the patient for a comprehensive eye exam referral. 

The patient is a younger person in her twenties visiting one of SVL's partner eyewear retail locations during December, 2017. Patient went through the wavefront refraction test, and the data was reviewed by a license optometrist. The doctor referred the patient for Anisometropia evaluation. There are 3 data points standing out about the patient. 

1. OS has significant higher cylinder term than that of OD. 
2. Both Keratoconus and Anisometropia are possibilities to explain the high cylinder in OS. 
3. After reviewing OS wavefront map, doctor didn't find significant coma in OS. Doctor referred the patient for Anisometropia evaluation.
