Myopia greatly impacts the quality of life and personal development of children1.

It has never been a better time to join the battle against the global myopia epidemic. MYAH is the perfect instrument for eyecare professionals interested in building, managing, and growing a myopia service.

Did you know that 50% of the world’s population2 may be myopic by 2050?

European regions are not an exception.

Introducing MYAH’s growth curves

MYAH allows you to monitor the progression of myopia and compare measurements with the growth curves for axial length. The majority of myopic eyes become myopic principally because of excessive axial elongation3.

By using the extensive axial length dataset collected by Erasmus University (Rotterdam, NL)3, or the dataset on Chinese children (Shanghai)4,5, now incorporated into MYAH, you can monitor axial length and then compare the patient’s data with normative growth curves.

MYAH OVERVIEW

Corneal Topography including keratoconus screening and pupillometry

Axial Length measurement by Optical Low Coherence Interferometry

Progression reports for analyzing treatment efficacy

Comprehensive suite of Dry Eye assessment tools

Patient-friendly with rapid capture

Compact, space saving, easy to operate

Building a myopia management practice requires you to educate your patients and their families about the implications of myopia progression, to manage the condition, and to grow your service offering.

BUILD YOUR MYOPIA MANAGEMENT SERVICE:

MYAH provides the initial baseline to monitor risk, allowing you to start the conversation early with parents.

MANAGE: MONITOR AND COMPARE

MYAH provides essential information to monitor eye elongation and compare axial length measurements with built-in growth curves.

GROW YOUR MYOPIA MANAGEMENT SERVICE: 

Offering axial length screening tests may complement your refraction tests.

MYAH offers all the technologies required to support myopia management: optical biometry, corneal topography and pupillometry – it is a one-time investment. In addition, MYAH is an all-in-one device that offers an evolving platform which provides the tools to add or grow Dry Eye Management.

The Rx and Axial Length charts help you track progression and monitor the effectiveness of intervention. MYAH provides this data so that you can compare changes over time. MYAH uses the same proven technology as the Topcon Aladdin biometer, producing reproducible axial length results.3

Dynamic Pupillometry

Provides clear information on the reaction time and size of the pupil, which may be useful to monitor low dose atropine compliance or to titrate the dose of atropine. The user can examine pupil centration and diameter over a range of light levels, which is useful for Ortho-K and multifocal lens fitting, and is also informative pre and post-refractive surgery.

Contact Lens Fitting

MYAH provides support for contact lens fitting, reducing the number of lenses that need to be trialed on the eye:

  • Includes a database of conventional RGP and Ortho-K lenses.
  • Export topography data to 3rd party calculators.
  • Fluorescein simulation with ability to save and review data.

Dry Eye Assessment Tools

These tools offer non-invasive Tear Break-up Time (NIBUT), Meibomian gland imaging with the area of loss analysis, tear meniscus height analysis, blink analysis, real fluorescein imaging and video acquisition, and video review of anterior corneal aberrations between blinks.

Corneal Topography

MYAH offers another range of tools to analyze the anterior cornea, including topographic maps, 3D maps, comparison maps, height maps, Zernike analysis and keratoconus screening.

Corneal Aberration Summary

The Zernike expansion coefficient is used to determine which component(s) dominate the aberration structure of the cornea and to what degree.

The anterior corneal Zernike summary consists of 36 polynomials up to the 7th order and provides a clear view of the optical irregularities that can impact the quality of vision.

MYAH makes your practice dynamic and smart.

This versatile instrument, with its intuitive and user-friendly interface, integrates easily into your workflow and offers different options for exporting the results.

Select patient* and acquisition mode.

Align patient and adjust automated chinrest.
Follow alignment guides to focus and trigger to start.
Review results print/export reports to network or USB.
* Create new patient, select existing patient or select patient from DICOM (search/worklist).
