TearView
Beyond 700 Pty, Ltd.TearView is a specialized thermal camera designed to capture detailed images of the eye and its tear film by detecting thermal emissivity patterns. It is used by eye care specialists to assist in diagnosing and assessing eye conditions by recording non-contact thermal videos during blinking, enhancing the evaluation of ocular surface health.
Intended Use
TearView is an ophthalmic camera intended to be used by an eye care specialist in adult patients to take digital images of the eye and surrounding areas. It is a non-contact thermograph that captures and stores images of thermal emissivity patterns of the ocular surface including its tear film during blinking.
Technology
TearView is a thermal camera based on a 640×480 pixel array microbolometer with a fixed focus lens system. It is designed as an accessory to a slit lamp, powered via USB connection to an external Windows computer/tablet, and passively acquires thermal radiation emitted from the ocular surface. The device records grey-scale thermal video of the eye without direct contact or light emission.
Performance
TearView has been field-tested in real-world use with over 1,000 ophthalmic patients across more than 4 years with no adverse events. Bench testing confirms compliance with relevant ophthalmic and electrical safety standards. Published clinical studies demonstrate the device safely captures dynamic emissivity patterns of the ocular surface including the tear film.
