Myopia Master®
Previously there was no all-in-one device available for performing refraction, axial length measurement and keratometry in combination. The only option was to purchase at least two devices, but this still left one with no myopia software.
The Myopia Master® from OCULUS now enables optometrists and ophthalmologists to position themselves optimally for the future. The Myopia Master® combines the most important parameters, making myopia detection and management much easier and more reliable than ever.
A refraction measurement is carried out in a matter of seconds and determines the eye’s refractive error. The sphero-cylindrical combination forms both the basis for subjective refraction and is also a fundamental parameter for myopia management.
The axial length measurement is independent of the accommodation state of the eye. The measurement is highly accurate. An increase in axial length is a reliable indication of myopia progression. Axial length measurement represents the gold standard for recognizing eye length growth at an early stage.
The Myopia Master® performs fast measurements of the most important parameters relating to myopia development. The measurement process only takes two minutes, is contactless and completely painless.
The standard deviation of repeated measurements of axial length is about 0.02 mm equivalent to a refractive error change of 0.05 D.
Myopia is a major risk factor for various eye diseases such as retinal detachment, macular diseases and glaucoma. This makes it essential to not only to treat the symptoms of myopia but also to slow down the progression of the disease. The Myopia Master® software offers you innovative tools to provide your patients with the very best care.
Measurement
All key data with just one measurement process (measurement of axial length, refraction, keratometry)
Data Analysis
Growth curves from the BHVI make data interpretation easier
Risk Identification
Questionnaire on environmental conditions and patient education
Myopia Report
Evaluation-based treatment recommendations to provide a clear list for the patient
NEW: Growth Analysis
For visible treatment success
Refraction, axial length, and keratometry are the main measures required for professional myopia management, but only in combination do they allow for individualized treatment and counselling.
Benefit from the unique measurement combination.
The patient data is compared with age and genderdependent growth curves collected from more than 20,000 eyes. Exclusive algorithms from the Brien Holden Vision Institute (BHVI) now make interpreting the data easier than ever.
Benefit from an extensive database.
The Myopia Master® software provides a default questionnaire addressing the most important risk factors. Further risk factors can be added and customized using the Question Kit.
All information is based on peer-reviewed papers.
The Myopia Master® software assists the eye specialist in educating children and their parents.
Benefit from the questionnaire or create your own.
Based on an evaluation of the questionnaire the eye specialist can select the appropriate treatment with a simple click or enter a personalized treatment. The Myopia Report for parents and children can then be sent to the patient by email or printed out together with the next examination appointment.
All of the results are clearly listed in the Myopia Report, which helps readers to understand their individual outcome.
Benefit from easy-to-understand material.
Regular eye growth checks are an essential aspect of successful myopia management. This illustration clearly shows the changes in eye growth as well as treatment successes.
Benefit from treatment and lifestyle recommendations.

Never has the interpretation of measurement results been as easy and reliable as with the new Myopia Master®. All individually measured refractive components of the eye are automatically matched with the Gullstrand standard eye model. This way you can always take your bearings by the gold standard. Not only does this save you time, it also provides an ideal basis for explaining the results to your patients.
Best of all, OCULUS has adapted the Gullstrand eye for children, providing even better care for this important target group.
The Gullstrand Refractive Analysis System or GRAS for short, is a refraction-analysis module that is optionally available with the Myopia Master®.

With progressive myopia already experiencing an extreme increase over the past few years, this drastic situation is further fueled by the changing eye demands associated with the Covid-19 crisis. This Case Report shows how myopia management was performed in an 8-year-old exophoric patient.
DOWNLOAD PDFIn myopia had been stated that avoid overcoming 26 mm of axial length or less of -6.00 D is of importance. Even more, if we know that every additional dioptre increases myopic maculopathy by 67 %. Today, orthokeratology (OK) is a gold standard for optical devices. Between them, Double Reservoir Lenses (DRL) easily allow customization, as changes in back optic zone diameter, for better myopia control in children.
DOWNLOAD PDFThe increasing myopia prevalence opens a new field for optometry. Educating parents and kids about risk factors, monitoring regimen and treatment options is an ethical responsibility as well as a new task for preventive optometry to identify those at risk for developing axial elongation along with severe eye health issues later in life.
DOWNLOAD PDFOver the last years, myopia management has become a major focus in the practical work of many eye care specialists. Current management options typically involve contact lenses or atropine. This Case Report describes the approach taken in a pre-myopic patient.
DOWNLOAD PDFI was initially introduced to the OCULUS Myopia Master® in 2019 (in the UK) and I was very excited to try out this new device which would enable me to measure axial length, refraction and keratometry, all at the same time. Previously there was no all-in-one device available for performing refraction, axial length measurement and keratometry in combination.

Dr Hakan Kaymak will walk you through a typical examination from start to finish, explaining what the essentials of a routine examination are and why good cooperation with optometrists is important.

DOWNLOAD PDFOCULUS has joined the International Myopia Institute (IMI) in tackling myopia awareness and will support the IMI activities to advance the research of myopia to prevent future vision impairment and blindness.
The IMI is a global group of experts who have come together to discuss, debate and make available the latest evidence-based recommendations in classifications, patient management, and research, in the form of the IMI-Whitepapers, in up to twelve international languages.
OCULUS and Myopia Profile, the world's largest and most popular myopia educational platform, have commenced a partnership to increase eye care practitioners' knowledge and clinical confidence in measurement and interpretation of axial length in myopia. Specific educational content, research summaries and case studies have been developed, which can be viewed on MyopiaProfile.com.
OCULUS and BHVI (Brien Holden Vision Institute) are pleased to announce an agreement that will see OCULUS incorporate BHVI’s algorithms for tracking and estimating refractive error into its Myopia Master® ophthalmic instruments developed for the management of myopia.
