Haag-Streit
Octopus 900
Addressing all major perimetry needs, the Octopus 900 is the perimeter of choice for anyone who wants diagnostic flexibility to analyse, assess and track patients’ visual fields
In 1945, Professor Hans Goldmann of the University of Berne, together with Haag-Streit, developed the Manual Goldmann perimeter. This instrument is still the reference for kinetic perimetry today and all of its capabilities and specifications are built into the Octopus 900. Furthermore, Haag-Streit has pioneered many significant innovations, including automated static perim-etry, the G-Program and the direct projection system, as well as fast strate-gies and outstanding software for visual field analysis.
It makes it possible to run standard central and peripheral visual fields with minimum test duration, seamlessly integrated into your practice environ-ment. This supports high patient throughput and effective practice manage-ment. With its built-in reliability features, the Octopus 900 is easy-to-use and delivers results you can trust.
Product Overview
Everything you need
The Octopus 900 performs standard white-on-white threshold testing in just 2–4 minutes in the central visual field. With its comprehensive test library for central and peripheral tests and its flexible printouts both in Octopus and HFA-format it covers all your clinical needs.
A test for any situation
The Octopus 900 offers all commonly used standard static tests. For central field testing there are the physiology-based G-patterns following the retinal nerve fibers and the 32, 30-2 and 24-2 patterns. For the macula, there are the physiology-based M pattern and the 10-2pattern. With the fast TOP strategy, full threshold testing can be completed in just 2-4 minutes. The commonly used binocular Estermann test, as well as a neurological and a peripheral glaucoma pattern are also included. And if you're still missing a test, why not create it yourself with the Custom Test option?
Standard Octopus representations
Look at visual field results the way you are used to from your Octopus perimeter. All Octopus perimeters offer the standard 7-in-1 printout with its well-known representations, a customizable 4-in-1 printout, a serial printout and much more. And why not conveniently view results in your office by networking your Octopus to the EyeSuite software on your computer?
Smooth transition from HFA
Enjoy a smooth transition from a HFA to an Octopus perimeter. All Octopus perimeters allow you to import your historic HFA data. Because raw data is imported, you can display your historic and new data in the same format of your choice, either as an HFA-style printout or in the Octopus format.
A clear view on glaucoma
Get the most out of your glaucoma visual field with the highly sensitive Cluster Analysis, the intuitive Polar Analysis for structural comparisons and the easy-to-interpret EyeSuite Progression Analysis.
Immediate identification of true change
Immediately identify levels of change with the EyeSuite Progression Analysis. It not only reveals whether change is significant, but also whether it is local or diffuse and how fast the change happening. For an effective clinical workflow, all results are displayed using intuitive graphical symbols and can be viewed directly in your office if the Octopus is networked.
Made easy for patients
A screening test has to be easy to complete by definition. That's why the patient-friendly Pulsar stimulus is recommended for screening purposes. It has been developed for early glaucoma detection and shows a short learning curve and low test-retest variability.
A clear view on glaucoma
Get the most out of your glaucoma visual field with the highly sensitive Cluster Analysis, the intuitive Polar Analysis for structural comparisons and the easy-to-interpret EyeSuite Progression Analysis.
Sensitive glaucoma analysis
The sensitive Cluster Analysis groups visual field defects along nerve fibre bundles and combines high sensitivity with good specificity to detect early glaucomatous changes. Significant defects are highlighted and the cluster defects can be used for structural comparison. Cluster Analysis is available in both single field and trend view.
For intuitive structural comparison
Combining the results of both structure and function is key to obtaining a comprehensive assessment of the onset and progression of glaucoma. The Octopus Polar Analysis projects local visual field defects along the nerve fibers to the optic disk and displays them oriented as structural results. This makes structure-function correlation almost intuitive. Polar Analysis is available in both
single field and trend view.
The modern Goldmann perimeter
Appreciate the same characteristics and kinetic flexibility as offered by the original Goldmann perimeter and further benefit from simplified and more consistent operation.
Comparable to the manual Goldmann perimeter
Enjoy the characteristics of the manual Goldmann perimeter in a modern device with automatic electronic data filing. As with the manual Goldmann perimeter, you can place vectors anywhere you want and even draw them manually in the standard Goldmann sizes, I to V, and intensities, 1a to 4e. In this way, you can achieve diagnostic results comparable to those from a manual Goldmann perimeter.
Simplified and more consistent operation
Benefit from the flexibility of a manual Goldmann but enjoy simplified and more consistent operation. Vector speed is now controlled and thus repeatable; the influence of both operator and patient reaction time is mostly eliminated and normal isopters provide guidance. And why not translate your standard clinical testing protocol into a template for all your patients that you can still adapt depending on the pathology?
Perimetry you can trust
Enjoy the reliability of Octopus perimeters, for example with Octopus Fixation Control which automatically eliminates fixation losses from your visual field testing.
Easy integration in your practice workflow
The EyeSuite software has been designed for optimum patient flow in busy practices. It controls all Haag-Streit devices and allows for them to be networked with other Haag-Streit devices, your office computer and your EMR system without the need for any expensive third-party software.
