Product Description Salient Characteristics Literature Review 1. SCOPE OF WORK: The Veterans Health Administration (VHA) Non-Expendable Equipment National Program has identified the Multifunction Corneal Analyzer, with Keratometry, Refractometry and Topography product line as a candidate for a VA-wide (otherwise referred to as national single Requirements contract award. The Multifunction Corneal Analyzer is an advanced vision-assessment system that combines topography, autorefraction and keratometry, allowing accurate and reliable analysis of corneal aberration. Some units may also include wavefront (a technology that makes custom laser eye surgery possible by precisely measuring and diagramming the aberrations of an optical system), and pupillometry (a measurement of the pupil size and reactivity) analysis. Corneal Topography provides intuitive maps and numerical data for the corneal surface. The Refractometer provides exceptionally accurate refractions for various pupil diameters including refractions under photopic and mesopic conditions, critical for proper assessment of both refractive surgery patients and common refractive problems. The Keratometer is a device used for the measurement of cornea anterior surface curvature across a fixed chord length. The versatility incorporated in one compact unit allows clinicians to obtain broad and precise information about the refractive status of the eye enabling comprehensive analysis and assessment, utilizing state-of-the-art data. The Contractor must demonstrate the ability to meet all requirements for the solicitation. The objective is to provide Multifunction Corneal Analyzers to be used by clinicians throughout the VA medical centers and facilities. The period of performance is for one 12-month base period with two 12-month option periods. 2.
