MELVILLE, N.Y., April 12, 2016 — (PRNewswire) — In today's healthcare environment, it is essential to invest in solutions that help streamline workflows while having features that can assist eye care professionals with their compliance efforts. Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital imaging solutions, will showcase solutions designed to address these needs during this year's Vision Expo East convention at the Jacob Javits Convention Center from April 15-17, 2016.

On display in the Canon booth (#MS7134) will be an extensive lineup of eye care solutions, including imageSPECTRUM Image Management System software¹, an intuitive software solution offering image management and portability to help improve workflow. With imageSPECTRUM Image Management Software, eye care professionals can perform retinal screenings then quickly transmit the images to doctors' offices thousands of miles away, both domestic and abroad², to assist in making a diagnosis.

In addition to Canon U.S.A.'s imageSPECTRUM Image Management System software, visitors to the booth will have the opportunity to interact with Eye Care solutions including:

• CR-2 PLUS AF Digital Non-Mydriatic Retinal Camera: The CR-2 PLUS AF captures ultra-high resolution images — quickly, efficiently, and automatically.  Designed around advanced Canon EOS optics and CMOS image-capture technology, the CR-2 PLUS AF features a customized 18 megapixel digital camera with advanced imageSPECTRUM Image Management software. With the press of a button, users can switch between auto and manual focusing for ultimate control and ease-of-use. The AutoCapture function determines the appropriate moment to capture an image by analyzing when exposure and alignment are ideal.
• CR-2 AF Digital Non-Mydriatic Retinal Camera: The CR-2 AF incorporates Canon EOS technology and provides superb retinal images under just about any condition.  With integrated AutoExposure, AutoFocus, AutoFundus, AutoCapture and Image Error Detection, Low-Flash and Quick Preview modes, this retinal camera is a breeze to operate. Enhanced from the previous CR-2 Digital Non-Mydriatic Retinal Camera, the CR-2 AF features Canon contrast enhancement technology never before offered in a Canon retinal camera to emphasize the differences in "redness" and "brightness" of blood vessel structures relative to their surroundings.
• RK-F2 Full Auto Ref-Keratometer: Including a Full Auto Mode which allows professionals to automatically align, focus, and acquire a reading for one eye and continue to the opposite eye to perform the same function – all with one touch of a button. This feature contributes to a comfortable, efficient screening process for the patient.
• TX-20 Full Auto Tonometer: Designed to be compact and lightweight, the non-contact tonometer is easy to transport and install. With soft air puffs, the TX-20 tonometer easily measures Intraocular Pressure (IOP), enhancing patient comfort and allowing doctors to perform simple eye exams efficiently. The TX-20 Tonometer, as the RK-F2 Keratometer, also offers one-touch Full Auto Mode to automatically align, focus and capture readings.
