Intelligent Robotic Solutions in Eye Care: Matthew Hosler, MD, shares how Maestro2 OCT Transformed Testing at His Practices
Matthew Hosler, MD, Director of Glaucoma Services for the Associated Eye Physicians and Surgeons of New Jersey, shares why he chose Topcon’s Maestro2 OCT for four of his practices: its efficiency, cost-effectiveness, ease of use, and advanced robotic technology. Dr. Hosler emphasizes how these features contribute to improved patient care and streamlined operations.
Efficient Eye Care with Robotic Precision
One of the standout features of the Maestro2 OCT is its high degree of advanced robotic precision. Dr. Hosler explains, “The amount of automation that goes into image capture, the robot positioning the patient for us, the camera focusing itself — these are all things that on prior OCT machines we would have to do manually.” Robotic solutions offer several advantages in eye care, including the significant benefit of freeing up valuable time in the practice without compromising the quality of care.
The Maestro2: Combining Multiple Imaging Techniques in One Device
The Maestro2 can capture and produce images using multiple imaging techniques with unparalleled precision, reducing the need for multiple devices. Dr. Hosler explains, “One of the advantages of the Maestro2 as a multimodal imaging device is that it allows us to get a true-color fundus photo, an OCT of the macula, and an OCT of the nerve. Topcon has designed its interface so that we can get a report that shows us the macula and optic nerve scans and thickness measurements on just one page, and then the physician in each lane has all three factors on one report.”
By combining multiple imaging requirements with advanced technology, physicians can use their time more efficiently and obtain precise measurements. This not only enhances comfort and reduces chair time for patients but also fosters greater trust between the patient and the physician.
