Overview

The CS Pola 600 is a polarised digital chart system for optometry and ophthalmic practices. Its large 24-inch LCD screen fits any refraction room and shows more than 100 general and specialised charts, including polarised binocular vision tests. It works from 1.5 m, includes reversible tests for mirrored rooms and randomises optotypes. You can run it from its own remote control or directly from the APH 550 automated phoropter to build a fully automated refraction chain.

A wide range of tests

  • Visual acuity: Landolt C, numbers, letters including ETDRS, Snellen and pictograms for children.
  • Binocular and special tests: binocular balance, fusion, aniseikonia, stereopsis, phoria, Worth, fixation point, cross-grid and Amsler grid.
  • Colour vision: Ishihara test and duochrome balance.
  • Real-life checks: customisable slideshows let patients judge a new prescription on everyday images.

Random optotypes stop patients memorising the chart, and reversible tests suit mirrored rooms.

Ask a question

Does the CS Pola 600 work with the APH 550?

Yes. It can be controlled directly from the APH 550 automatic phoropter console, or from a computer through the APH 550 computer control system.

Do patients need special glasses?

Polarised binocular tests need polarising glasses, and red/green tests need red/green glasses. Both are optional accessories.

What room length does the CS Pola 600 need?

It works from 1.5 m. Below 3 m a mirror is recommended, and reversible tests are built in for mirrored rooms.
