Amblyopiescreening
Frühzeitige Erkennung der am häufigsten vorkommenden Sehstörungen bei Kindern
Eine Messung mit dem Plusoptix Vision Screener ermöglicht Kinder- und Jugendärzten, Gesundheitsämtern und staatlichen Einrichtungen die am häufigsten auftretenden Sehstörungen und amblyogenen Risikofaktoren bei Kindern ab dem 5. Lebensmonat aufzudecken.
Die Messwerte entsprechen den Ergebnissen einer Skiaskopie in enger Pupille, wie sie vom Berufsverband der Augenärzte (BVA) als Bestandteil der augenärztlichen Augenvorsorgeuntersuchung zugelassen ist.
Das Amblyopiescreening kann als GKV- oder IGeL-Leistung abgerechnet werden.

The purpose of a Plusoptix vision screening device is to empower Pediatricians, Headstarts, Lions Clubs, and School nurses to detect the most prevalent vision disorders in children as early as possible. The earlier a vision disorder is detected the better it can be treated, and Amblyopia, i.e. a lazy eye, can be prevented.
Plusoptix Vision Screeners use the measuring principle of a transillumination test. Unlike other transillumination tests (e.g. Red Reflex test), Plusoptix devices avoid glare of the patient, by using infrared light. The pupils remain large even without dilation.
Your advantages
- Quick assessment of children that need to see an eye doctor immediately
- Pupil zoom feature for enhanced transillumination (Red Reflex test or Bruckner Test)
- CSV interface for full integration to your EMR system (automated patient data import, -export and measurement report printing)
- Automatic printing using the free software "plusoptiXconnect"
- Measurement can easily be performed by an assistant
The missing piece for AAP compliance and reimbursement options>
Evidence-based vision screening with Plusoptix meets the guidelines of the 2016 AAP Policy statement "Visual Assessment in Infants, Children, and Young Adults by Pediatricians" and is eligible for CPT Code 99177 reimbursement.
