After a hiatus, during which hands-on exhibitions were much missed, it was a joy to be able to see and play with the very latest in ophthalmic instrumentation and technology at the recent 100% Optical show recently held in London. As expected, key themes were myopia management and imaging, but there was much more of interest, including some new developments supporting the advances in therapeutics being made by our profession.
There are a number of new instruments on the market capable of supporting practices involved with myopia management, an area in which many of the big players in ophthalmic technology are investing.
Topcon Healthcare continue to attract much interest in their Myah (figure 1). This multifunction instrument is capable of axial length measurements, increasingly essential for monitoring myopic progression, and has lately incorporated growth curves to allow comparison with expected growth with various interventions (figure 2).
The Myah, however, offers much more and is capable of topography (including keratoconus screening and pupillometry) and a battery of dry eye assessment tools, such as non-invasive break-up time and location measurements.
