Topcon Chronos is a complete digital refraction solution that combines autorefraction, keratometry, and subjective refraction in a single device. The fully automated system, which features the guided refraction software, SightPilot®, simplifies the exam and facilitates delegation. Also, Chronos reduces the number of conventional refraction lanes and additional refractometers needed.
“Simply put, Topcon Chronos reinvents refraction,” states Mr. John Trefethen, Global VP of Marketing and Product Design for Topcon Healthcare. “This revolutionary all-in-one system saves time and space and allows eye care providers to delegate the refraction process and grow their practice. Topcon Chronos is the culmination of Topcon’s commitment to developing highly advanced multi-modal medical devices and software platforms that allow today’s eye care providers to practice smarter, safer, and more efficiently than ever before. This technology changes the game forever, and we are thrilled to bring it to fruition.”
