Although manual refraction systems are still used by some ophthalmic professionals, digital refraction systems are quickly becoming the equipment standard for modern day ophthalmic offices. And this shift is happening for a good reason; digital refraction systems provide benefits for the ophthalmic doctor, the patient and the office as a whole. Now, ophthalmic doctors can control the functions of a refraction exam with one digital dial pad to put more emphasis on the accuracy and satisfaction of each exam.
