I. INTRODUCTION
Good vision is a precious gift, which should be guarded, cherished, and nurtured throughout life. To maintain good vision, frequent vision screenings and periodic visual exams are necessary. In this way, an awareness of inadequate vision or changes in vision can be noted. The eye-care professional can then correct most visual problems. Without these screenings, many children and adults would have undetected visual difficulties, having a direct effect on their quality of life.
Eye-care professionals feel that the earlier vision screening can begin, the more rewarding the results can be. This attention should be continued throughout adult life, with specific attention to the working years.
Stereo Optical's OPTEC ® 1000 Vision Tester does this screening very efficiently. It is a precision instrument designed to do quick, accurate, reliable, and confidential screening. It will identify those who have a problem and need professional assistance.
THE OPTEC ® 1000 VISION TESTER
The OPTEC ® 1000 is engineered for ease of use. The instrument is automatic with no moving parts. The instrument weighs only 12 pounds and has a convenient handle for easy portability. The OPTEC ® 1000 can be used on a desk, tabletop or countertop, requiring less than two square feet of space. All tests are concealed in a closed housing which allows only the subject being tested to view the targets.
The disposable headrest tissues insure the applicant a hygienic environment. The headrest also triggers the illumination for the test when pressure is applied. If the subject backs off or is in the wrong position, there will be no light in the instrument.
All tests required have been mounted on one easy to change slide.
For the operator, all switches are conveniently located on a remote control panel that can be placed anywhere for the operator's convenience. Each switch is color coded for immediate identification.
