Konan Medical Releases Medical Media Features as Enhancement to Chart2020® DUO App For iPad
Irvine, CA (PRWEB) March 19, 2014 -- A new Media Library has been released on Apple’s Retina iPad® as an enhancement of Konan’s Chart2020 DUO application. As with the Blind Spot Amsler™ feature, the Media Library is available for a limited time at an introductory price from the iTunes Store®. The first release of the Media Library includes patient-friendly illustrations and videos on a wide range of eye disease and surgery topics such as macular degeneration, refractive surgery, cataract surgery, color vision / color blindness, diabetic retinopathy, endothelial dystrophies and more. The Media Library was developed to be extensible with future versions allowing third party images and other educational features.
The Chart2020 Duo app provides a novel framework for the testing of near and intermediate distance visual performance, as well as the most advanced controller for distance visual acuity and ocular performance testing for the Chart2020 Windows application. “The Media Library adds another element of usefulness for our eye care practice customers,” said Charles Wm. Stewart, OD, Konan Medical USA CEO. “Our iOS products offer a terrific complement to our existing family of products balanced with low cost and high value for optometry, ophthalmology, and clinical research.”
