ephiós handheld ERG system




Fully Portable
ERG System
ephiós handheld ERG provides the
ophthalmologist the capability to
evaluate function of the retinal cells
and help detecting malfunction in
the eye retina. The instrument
follows ISCEV Standard. The
instrument can be used as a stand
alone unit for test & analysis. The
curves are stored in the instrument
memory for easy transfer to the
personal computer for later
analysis.
