Evaluating pupil response and eye movement is an important part of most general physical exams. That’s because eye movements and pupil responses are controlled by an extremely sensitive set of visual neuronal centers and pathways that are affected by many medical conditions. The VisPath Analyzer™ (VPA) provides pre-programmed visual stimuli and automates the examination of eye movement, pupil function and visual fields.
Ease, Comfort and Speed
Rapid and accurate screening, diagnosis and monitoring of a wide variety of conditions that affect neural pathways in the case of
- Head Trauma
- Concussion
- Stroke
- Multiple Sclerosis
- Myastenia Gravis
- Brain Tumors
Results are in digital form and can be communicated via Internet or other telemedical media.
- Minimal training required for operation of the VPA
- No patient discomfort
- Typical exam takes 3 minutes
- Clinical studies underway at University of Iowa Department of Neuro-ophthalmology
- A research model should be available mid-2006.
The test results are displayed in a chart indicating various measures in relations to population norms, with abnormal results highlighted. If the user wants to examine the results of specific tests, graphs like those below can readily be displayed.
