Overview

Heru has launched PretestPro, a software-based pretesting workflow for its Heru Prime virtual reality diagnostic headset, integrating four eye exams into a single 90-second assessment.

Background

The integration of multiple eye exams into a single workflow represents a significant advancement in ophthalmic diagnostics. Traditional pretesting often requires multiple devices and manual steps, which can be time-consuming and inefficient.

Data Highlights

PretestPro combines four eye exams into a single 90-second assessment, significantly reducing testing time compared to traditional methods.

Key Findings

PretestPro integrates 8-point suprathreshold testing, near cover testing, extraocular motility assessment, and quantitative pupillometry.
The system automates tests that typically require multiple devices and manual steps.
Patients are guided through the assessment using Nora, a fixation target designed to maintain fixation.
Heru Prime users can add visual acuity testing, extending the total testing time to approximately two minutes.
The platform aims to reduce reliance on separate legacy devices and can be used in various clinical settings.

Clinical Implications

The introduction of PretestPro may facilitate more efficient eye examinations, allowing clinicians to conduct essential tests in a fraction of the time.
