Description
Comprehensive visual screening in minimal time
The Optec® 5500 and Optec® 5500P Vision Screeners from Stereo Optical are professional instruments designed to perform efficient and repeatable visual screening in a controlled environment. Their remote-control operation, color-corrected LED illumination and broad selection of test slides make them suitable for clinical, occupational, educational and government screening programs.
The system supports monocular and binocular testing at near, distance and intermediate ranges. Depending on the selected slide package, users can evaluate adult and pediatric visual acuity, Ishihara color vision, stereopsis or depth perception, vertical and lateral phorias, astigmatism and additional visual functions.
The Optec 5500P expands the capabilities of the standard model by incorporating a horizontal peripheral vision test. Stimuli can be presented at 85°, 70° and 55° temporally and 45° nasally, making this configuration appropriate for occupational, driver rehabilitation and other specialized screening applications.
