Medical Applications
Melan-100 is the very first instrument available for testing retina and optic nerve function based on the
evaluation of spectral properties of the pupil light reflex.

Melan-100 can be used as a valuable additional diagnostic tool for diagnosis of:

-        Sudden acquired retinal degeneration (SARD)
-        Immune-mediated steroid responsive retinitis
-        Retinal degeneration (hereditary)
-        Chorio-retinitis/retinitis
-        Retinal detachment
-        Glaucoma
-        Optic neuritis/ meningitis;  pituitary tumor,  chiasmal tumor
-         Brain tumor/ visual cortex damage
-        Ophthalmoplegia interna/ extern

A very fast and easy way to differentiate between;
-
Retinal Disease                           (NO response for RED and GOOD response for BLUE)     
-
Optic Nerve/CNS disease         ( NO response for RED and NO response for BLUE)
