Webinar collection March-April 2020

This 2020 tested us, but it has brought up the big desire for cooperation and integration between our company and our partners.

As previously written, the experience of the webinars held during the lockdown period was for us all inspiring and enriching at the same time.

We continue to receive positive feedback, active participation in discussions and various suggestions from: doctors, partners, customers and distributors.

Our newsletters dedicated to the replies of the webinars showed the validity of the contents and the appreciation from the public that follows us with such enthusiasm. Precisely for this reason, we created this collection of all the webinars held between March-April 2020.

As Sales & Marketing Manager Davide Maddalozzo said: “Nothing will ever be as before, let’s try together to make something better than before.

A new technology to prevent visual impairments in schoolar age kids in Uzbekistan

A new technology to prevent visual impairments in schoolar age kids in Uzbekistan

A new technology to prevent visual impairments in schoolar age kids in Uzbekistan

November 2019 – current – As a first appointment of a city’s visual impairment’ prevention program in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, last 20th November Saif Optima, a leading eye-care clinic in Tashkent, and its doctors conducted for the first time the screening of 241 kids (from 6 to 8 years old) at School 166. The screening was performed in 3 hours directly inside the school facilities, by using the mobile and portable binocular videorefractometer called KALEIDOS.

Ophthalmologists in Uzbekistan are aware of the importance of an early scholar age screening to detect visual impairments, refractive errors and amblyogenic factors. Since November, Dr. Gulchekhra Nazarova and her colleagues from Saif Optima have screened over 700 young children in 3 different outreach school projects (kids between 6 and 15 years old) in Tashkent and referred an average of 48 percent for additional eye examinations (refractions deviations). Of the identified deviations, more than 60% were children with a newly diagnosed pathology with a low level of deviation of refraction.

These screening are the result of a partnership between Saif Optima and the local institutions in Tashkent, the capital of Uzbekistan with over 2.4 million people and around 100.000 scholar age students. The project aimed at increasing the quality and availability of education services for students with visual impairments and to make families and parents aware of the importance of an eye screening in early age. One of the main objectives of the partnership is the detection and prevention of eye diseases at an early stage. In addition to outreach school projects, Saif Optima has implemented its services by providing an entry-level eye screening for all the patients and not (kids, adults and elderly) who enter the clinic. That, just few days after the implementation, has allowed the screening of around 50 adults, 38% of whom have been referred for additional testing. This had been possible by placing one KALEIDOS unit at the entrance of the clinic, and by offering a 3″ automatic eye check, with possibility to receive a complete binocular objective refraction, in combination with an amblyogenic factors screening, with no age or phenotype limitation.

“For the first time in Uzbekistan, we used a 2WIN binocular portable refractometer in Kaleidos configuration. The device is convenient and easy to use. It became possible to determine refractive deviations in a large number of subjects in a short period of time outside a specialized clinic. It became possible to examine young children, what was previously difficult. Using the device allows us to avoid medical expansion of the pupils. Also, the practice of our clinic showed that 2WIN gives a more accurate picture when determining astigmatism, which coincides with the keratometric data of the topographer in comparison with autorefractometers” says Dr. Nazarova. During 2020 the project is to continue with regular school screenings and to stably implement KALEIDOS into procedures of both Saif Optima’s owned clinics, by also introducing the new anterior segment screening function and by becoming the first cloud-based screening clinic in Uzbekistan.

These targets and projects have been temporarily stopped, due to the Uzbekistan national lock-down. The responsible of the project, Mr Vyacheslav Mokretsov, is confident that the KALEIDOS technology will ease the restart of the project “The system is portable, automatic and it guarantees the complete functionality also at more than 1m safety distance (patient-operator distance Ed.). The technology will allow us to continue both the outreach programs and the internal screenings in safety conditions, for the patients and for our operators when the lock-down will be over”.

Dear all,

the major of Milan, during the most critical days of the lockdown said “Nothing will ever be as before, let’s see if we can make something better than before”

This 2020 has been, for most of us and most of our businesses, very challenging and obliged us to reconsider all our plans and our business behaviours.

However, what has been very touching in the recent period is that, despite “physical distance”, people have become “social closer”, which is very encouraging and also in line with the ethics and the vision of our company and of most of our partners.

For that reason, we are so happy for your outstanding reaction and active participation to our Adaptica Webinar Series, which was initially thought as an alternative digital promotion, while it has become, webinar by webinar, speaker by speaker, an occasion to mutually share and gain experiences coming from all the lectures, questions and comments.

With more than 1000 registered people from more than 60 countries, 14 international webinars, and more than 800 minutes live, we proudly thank everybody who has contributed to these events. Starting from all our committed distributors and local partners, who supported their promotion, to all the international speakers, with interesting and valuable contents, and, especially, to all of you, who followed our initiative with such a great involvement.

It has been a pleasure to see how positively you all reacted and how you are dealing with the situation despite all your daily challenges.

We love to think that our webinar might have given you some useful suggestion for your practices and that you might consider the cooperation with us as a key point of your kick-off after lockdown, and we sincerely hope you will be following us while we will keep sharing with you our contents and our experiences through our social media and our website.

Adaptica joins the IAPB Standard List

Adaptica joins the IAPB Standard List

Adaptica joins the IAPB Standard List

The International Agency for the Prevention of Blindness (IAPB) is the overarching alliance for the global eye care sector. They have over 150 members worldwide drawn from NGOs and civil society, corporate organisations, professional bodies and research and eye care institutions.

IAPB was founded in 1975 to lead international efforts in blindness prevention activities. The agency works towards a world where no one is needlessly visually impaired, in which everyone has access to the best possible standard of eye health, and eye care is a core part of Universal Health Coverage.

Each year the organization lists a certain number of suggested suppliers and equipment that are recommended to IAPB’s members for their projects, the so-called IAPB Standard List. The Standard List / Valued Supplier Scheme is a great platform to source and compares eye health products and technologies.

The List provides a carefully evaluated range of technologies from valued and trusted suppliers. All the products listed score well against strict assessment criteria and are worthy of consideration when deciding which product to purchase.

We are delighted and proud to announce that Adaptica and Kaleidos plus have been listed in the IAPB Standard List / Valued Supplier Scheme 2020. This is a great opportunity for Adaptica to explore even more cooperation with NGOs worldwide.

Why Kaleidos is a unique technology for objective refraction to speed up the measurement in screening projects

OneSight -one of Adaptica’s partners- and one of the most important independent nonprofit  organizations providing access to quality vision care and glasses in underserved communities worldwide, uses Kaleidos in many of its clinics, especially those in rural areas. Last year’s clinic in Cambodia is a perfect example of the usage of Kaleidos in screening projects.

“It’s an objective way of measuring the patient’s refractive error. The device is tablet-controlled and all the patient does is look into the tube, and the system will automatically make readings of both eyes simultaneously and take some other measurements which are necessary for the manufacturing of glasses.”

Kaleidos is a cutting-edge technology. It is a fully portable and automatic objective refractometer and vision analyzer that, in just 3 seconds, measures the refraction of both eyes and discovers other ocular impairments providing a screening of amblyogenic factors. It is light-independent, so it can be used in any environmental light condition.

Cambodia, located in the heart of Southeast Asia, bordering Thailand, Laos, and Vietnam, is a beautiful country full of temples and stunning landscapes. The population there faces incredible challenges daily, with more than 10% of the population living below the poverty line and over 40% of Cambodians earning $2 per day. Cambodia has an estimated population of 12 million people, 85% of whom live in rural areas. With a blindness prevalence rate of 1.2%, an estimated 180,000 people are blind. The main causes of blindness are cataract, uncorrected refractive error and glaucoma. 90% of blindness is avoidable, 79% is curable, and 11% is preventable. On top of that, Cambodia has one of the lowest numbers of eye care specialists per capita in the world.

From May 20 – 24, OneSight hosted a clinic in the rural Ampov Prey Commune of Cambodia, providing free eye exams and glasses to nine local villages in partnership with Khmer Sight Foundation and Essilor Vision Foundation. They were able to serve nearly 1,300 patients in just five days.

Due to the unique challenges presented by the geographic location of the clinic, OneSight decided to take on an agile kitting approach, which uses lighter, more portable equipment to reach remote areas faster and more efficiently. Typically, a clinic this size would require a dozen pallets of equipment to be transported to the site. With their innovative approach, they were able to pack an entire clinic into one pallet of supplies. It’s devices such as Kaleidos that make these nimble kits possible, giving volunteers the ability to screen more patients in a short period of time.

Here it’s what Jenny Harnett, OneSight Program Manager, said about the device:

“Adaptica’s Kaleidos has been a wonderful addition to our OneSight programs around the globe. It’s incredibly easy to transport and operate, patients love the fun and interactive experience, and our optometrists have great confidence in the readings. This innovative technology helps us deliver faster, higher quality care to more people, bringing us closer to our goal to help the world see.”

The team was composed of 50 members (including 27 OneSight team members, seven employees from  local partner, Khmer Sight Foundation, and 16 local volunteers who assisted with translation.) In just five days, they were able to see precisely 1,263 patients, providing nearly 1,100 pairs of glasses to those in need.

Kaleidos can be a crucial device for screening projects to shorten measurement time and increase the number of screenings. With thousands of patients already screened across dozens of projects, OneSight certainly knows how to make the most of Kaleidos to support its mission to eradicate the vision care gap around the world.

We are happy to inform that Adaptica joins the IAPB Standard List

Safety during Covid and post Covid crisis

Safety during Covid and post Covid crisis

Safety during Covid and post Covid crisis

Why Adaptica’s devices are the perfect ophthalmic instruments to perform measurement in safety.

The American Academy of Ophthalmology is continuously sharing and updating important ophthalmology-specific information related to Covid-19.

This highly contagious virus leads mainly to severe respiratory issues, but several reports suggest that it can cause a mild follicular conjunctivitis and possibly be transmitted by aerosol contact with conjunctiva. It is therefore important for eyecare specialists to protect mouth, nose and eyes and be particularly careful with the disinfection practices already in use to prevent office-based spread of other viral pathogens – before and after every patient encounter.

More specifically, in the recommended protocols when seeing a patient (published by AAO) we can read:

1. Utilization

The use of commercially available slit-lamp barriers or breath shields is encouraged, as they may provide a measure of added protection against the virus. These barriers do not, however, prevent contamination of equipment and surfaces on the patient’s side of the barrier, which may then be touched by staff and other patients and lead to transmission. Homemade barriers may be more difficult to sterilize and could be a source of contamination. In general, barriers are not a substitute for careful cleaning of equipment between patients and asking those patients who cough, sneeze, or have flu-like symptoms to wear masks during examination.

2. In the future

To further decrease the risk of any virus transmission, ophthalmologists should inform their patients that they will speak as little as possible during the examinations, and request that the patient also refrain from talking.

3. In-office procedures

For in-office procedures that require close physical proximity to the patient, we recommend the patient wear a surgical mask or a cloth face covering if surgical masks are in short supply, and that the surgeon wear a surgical mask and eye protection. In regions with high prevalence of COVID-19, an N95 mask for the surgeon can be considered when available. The CDC’s recommendations on N95 extended use and/or reuse should be followed.

Taking all of this into consideration, how can Adaptica assist eyecare professionals and patients in this difficult era? It’s very simple: by producing devices that have never needed close proximity between patient and technician.

In order to keep practicing, with the littlest restraints possible, incorporate Kaleidos in your examination routine: you will never need to be at less than 1 meter/6 feet from your patients! With the tablet remote control and the possibility to sanitize the device with alcoholic solutions, Covid-19 will not stop you from taking care of your patients. 

You will be able to perform subjective refraction in the fastest way possible and respecting all sanitary recommendations given by WHO.

Adaptica on PLAST DESIGN: functionality & aesthetics

Adaptica on PLAST DESIGN: functionality & aesthetics

Adaptica on PLAST DESIGN: functionality & aesthetics

The article published on November issue of PlastDesign is an important confirmation of the design work behind the creation of the Adaptica instrumentation.

Both Kaleidos and his 2WIN brother were designed by Studio Paolo Bacco and are part of the almanac of the best Italian design in ten years.

Reading the article you can understand very well the reason why these products were first classified and the values ​​of the research and development of Adaptica.

We not only pay attention to aesthetics criteria, but we do believe they have to match maximum functionality.

Kaleidos is a great example of affordance design, functionality, and eye-catching aesthetics.

Ergonomic, easy to carry and use, Kaleidos is a portable darkroom for refractometry that operates in any critical condition.

But moreover, thanks to its interesting design, it stimulates curiosity and looks very friendly to users, first of all, children. That makes this tool “especially suitable for pediatric use”, as it is said in ADI Design Index 2019 jurors praise.

In addition to providing accurate refraction data, Kaleidos works perfectly as a marketing tool for eyewear stores because of its modern aspect, due to advanced technology embedded in an attractive and soft design.

Therefore in our website you’ll have either content related to Vision screening, or a section dedicated to Eye care specialists.

Screening program in Uzbekistan

Screening program in Uzbekistan

Screening program in Uzbekistan

Tashkent is the capital and largest city of Uzbekistan with a population in 2018 of 2,485,900. It is located in the north-east of the country, close to the Kazakhstan border.

Last week, in collaboration with our partner Глазная клиника Saif-Optima, we performed a screening program at School 166 (Школа 166 города Ташкента).
It is incredible to consider that with one Kaleidos it took just 3 hours to perform 241 kids. Was so heartwarming to see all these cute children go ahead, one after the other, getting the test.

We thank our partner, Saf-Optima and the school leaders for the perfect organization. Once we were ready to start the screening program, they had settled the classes and scheduled exactly the spot for all the young students.

Adaptica is involved directly and through its partners or NGOs in screening programs all over the world. We believe it is important to provide accurate, portable, friendly equipment. Kaleidos allows to do that: it is a resilient and long-lasting battery instrument that works perfectly in any light condition. Eye care operators do love it!

Philippines – More screening programs

Alliance Regional Care (ARC) Hospital – Borough Eye Center

Held last August 30, 2019, this Eye Center was built with cooperation of ARC & Borough, a well-known health facility with four Medical Clinics scattered in Metro Manila. Kaleidos have been featured in some provincial Newspaper Articles in Lapu-Lapu, Cebu (Central Visayas Area) and had given a high recommendation for their screening process.

Good Samaritan Hospital- Nueva Ecija Eye and Laser Center

This institution invited us last August 24 and 27, 2019 for their Sight Saving Month Program and Anniversary demonstration. Knowing beforehand the quality of Kaleidos they decided to use it especially for the accuracy of the exam as well as portability and velocity this instrument provides. In this screening program participated children, adults to uniformed personnel and  travelled Cabanatuan, Nueva Ecija (North East of Luzon).

Maranatha Christian Academy

In cooperation with Calamba Eye Center (Calamba, Laguna/ South Luzon Area) we have screened around 106 elementary students using Adaptica’s refraction system. During the program, by using Kaleidos,  we found out different cases of “HIgh Myopic”, “Astigmatism” and “Anisometropic”.

The screening programs help in a decisive way to detect sight anomalies in an early stage, and this allows interventions which can easily solve a series of problems that otherwise would become difficult to treat.

Philippines – the journey of Kaleidos continues

Philippines – the journey of Kaleidos continues

Philippines – the journey of Kaleidos continues

It is really exciting to work in Philippines, people are so kind and Eye care specialist are empathetic and very well prepared. Recently we have participated in various screening campaigns organized in collaboration with several of our partners. Other new screening programs are being planned.

Adaptica’s vision is to provide accessibility to Eye Care Services to each and every person in the world while our devices are designed to enable eye care specialists to perform screening and eye exam in an easy, fast and accurate way.

Kaleidos is the most suited device to be used for refraction screening programs since it works perfectly in any light condition, and it is accurate, portable, fast and super easy to use.

Male dormitory at Bacoor, Cavite

The screening program involved about 60 orphaned children from the male dormitory, located in Bacoor, Cavite (southern part of Luzon). This project is the result of collaboration between The Fred Hollows Foundation International Philippines  and Qantas Foundation Australia,  along with the partnership of Myopia Control Clinic in Makati, Metro Manila.

Christian Love School

In cooperation with Carmen Abesamis-Dichoso, one of the leading Optometrist in Manila, we participated in another screening program at Christian Love School in Muntinlupa (South of Metro Manila). This time the screening involved 70 kids from kinder to elementary students. In this occasion Kaleidos contributed to detect a different cases of “High Myopic” and “Astigmatism” which are uncomplicated to address if detected in an early stage. 

We strongly believe that technology should contribute to improve people’s life. That’s why we call it Technology for Humanity.

Dennis Norris’s interview at ESCRS 2019

 

After his lecture during the workshops we held at ESCRS in Paris, we interviewed Dennis Norris, Senior Director of OneSight‘s Global Programming to understand why it is so important for them to use our equipment on the field.

According to Dennis Norris:

“OneSight loves Adaptica products for a variety of reasons the main one would be the portability of the equipment. We go all over the world to many remote areas and it is important for us to ship as little as possible to those areas so we can hand carry our equipment to any location and that really makes us happy so Adaptica equipment allows us to do that. It is very portable, it is very durable, they have long-lasting battery lives and the doctors that we use at our clinic absolutely love the equipment.”

He showed his enthusiasm about the advantages of using our products during OneSight’s projects, especially on the Amazon River project in Brazil.

OneSight’s voluteer were there for a limited time and their goal was to see as many patients as possible and thanks to the quickness and the portability of our devices, they could see almost 900 patients per day.
