FM 700 Laser Flare Meter
Laser Flare Photometry is the only objective and quantitative method to reliably measure active inflammation in the anterior chamber.
The FM-700, Kowa’s unique aqueous flare meter combined with a slit-lamp design, allows the doctor to improve assessment of inflammation and provide a consistent follow up to patients by enabling the in-vivo measurement of aqueous flare in a non-contact, non-invasive and painless manner.
The quantitative and precise measurement of aqueous flare it provides is essential in the management of patients with uveitis and other ocular inflammatory diseases.
- A direct slit lamp biomicroscopy view of the anterior chamber combined with laser flare photometry
- Accurate, quantitative protein density measurement using the latest laser light scattering technique
- Ideal for uveitis and research centres
Kowa’s FM-700 aqueous flare meter, has been designed to combine the ultimate in accuracy and efficiency providing fast detection of ocular inflammation and subclinical change of inflammation levels.
- Easy alignment guide
- Precise results
- Non-contact, non-invasive measurement
- Comprehensive management of uveitis and other inflammatory diseases
