Gonioscope GS-1

Revolutionizing Eye Care: NIDEK's GS-1 Automated Gonioscopy for Enhanced Filtration Angle Imaging and Efficient Patient Follow-up

NIDEK SA introduces a groundbreaking advancement in gonioscopy with the GS-1, automating the acquisition of images of the filtration angle over a 360° range, making this examination more accessible than ever. The GS-1 gonioscope features a unique acquisition cone comprised of 16 faceted mirrors reflecting light at a 61° angle, requiring the application of a 1.5mm gel as an interface between the patient's eye and the device.

This technological leap involves capturing 17 images at different focal planes for each of the 16 facets, resulting in a total of 272 images acquired within 15 seconds. The assembled image of the unrolled angle offers both linear and circular representations based on user preferences, enabling detailed analysis of anatomical landmarks, assessing the iridocorneal angle's degree of openness, and evaluating pigmentation.

The innovative representation of anomalies around the angle is localized and saved, ensuring optimal patient tracking. Additionally, the color image of the unwound angle plays a crucial role in planning and overseeing mini-invasive surgeries for glaucoma. It aids in determining the best insertion site and monitoring material implantation.

Data storage is a key feature, enhancing clinical follow-up and patient management. Examination reports can be easily linked to patient files or shared with colleagues for diagnostic assistance. The collected images serve educational purposes for both patients and ongoing ophthalmologist training. Overall, automated gonioscopy not only provides swift and frequent access to filtration angle data but also simplifies patient follow-up, marking a significant advancement in eye care technology.
