Phoroptor® Refracting Devices
Acknowledged worldwide as the original, finest available, and best refracting instrument, Phoroptor continues to be the industry standard after more than 90 years, offering world-renown mechanical quality and craftsmanship. We trademarked the name in 1921, so while you might refer to a refracting instrument as just a “phoropter”, the original, trademarked, patented and trusted name is the Phoroptor from Reichert. The proper spelling is with an “or”. Remember, “refractor” is spelled with an “or” and so is Phoroptor.

Ocular Response Analyzer® G3
Corneal Hysteresis and IOPcc
Ocular Response Analyzer® (ORA) G3 is the only device that measures Corneal Hysteresis (CH) and Corneal Compensated IOP (IOPcc). Corneal Hysteresis has consistently shown to be a more powerful predictor of, and strongly associated with, glaucoma progression, more so than key risk factors such as IOP and CCT. IOPcc is a pressure measurement that is less affected by corneal properties and more associated with glaucoma risk than Goldmann and other tonometers. Ocular Response Analyzer is engineered, designed, and assembled in USA.
Ocular Response Analyzer® G3 and Corneal Hysteresis:
Make a more confident glaucoma risk assessment, with Corneal Hysteresis. Only Ocular Response Analyzer® G3 from Reichert® measures Corneal Hysteresis (CH), a superior predictor of glaucoma progression, which is more associated with visual field progression than CCT or IOP.1,3,5 Ocular Response Analyzer helps add clarity to your glaucoma decision making process. CPT Code 92145, was published for the Corneal Hysteresis measurement provided by Ocular Response Analyzer.
