NIDEK has launched the ARK-F/AR-F Auto Ref/Keratometer / Auto Refractometer, which features fully-automatic measurement. By placing the chin on the chinrest, the new NIDEK eye detection camera automatically detects the position of the eyes and measurement starts without pressing any button. Gentle voice guidance facilitates smooth measurement for any operator. “Reliably accurate eye examination equipment with comfortable operability has become worldwide standard,” said Motoki Ozawa, President and CEO of NIDEK. “Our ARK-F/AR-F will impressively change your ‘standard’ with its smooth, fully-automatic and precise measurement and high freedom of installation, in addition to the conventional accurate measurement.” https://www.nidek-intl.com
