Intended use
The “plusoptiX S16” is used for the early detection of visual disorders (preventative eye
care). These visual disorders can cause permanent loss of vision in an eye (amblyopia) if
they are not discovered and treated in the early years.
To detect visual disorders, the “plusoptiX S16” measures the sphere, cylinder, axis, line of
vision and pupil size of both eyes at the same time. Using these measurement values, the
spherical equivalent, gaze symmetry and interpupillary distance are calculated. All
measurement values are compared with age-dependent referral criteria. “Refer” is
automatically displayed as a precautionary result for every patient requiring an
ophthalmologist appointment.
Note:
Preventative eye care with the “plusoptiX S16” does not replace the eye
examination carried out by an ophthalmologist. An ophthalmologist remains the
only one who can interpret the measurement values and establish a diagnosis.
The measurement values must not be used directly to prescribe glasses or
contact lenses.
All children who are not already being treated by an ophthalmologist should undergo a
preventative eye care examination. The first preventative eye care examination should be
carried out at the age of one. They should then be repeated regularly, as the eyes can
change during growth and new visual disorders can appear at any time. All children with a
“Refer” result from the preventative eye care examination should be referred for an eye
examination with an ophthalmologist.
Note:
False-positive and false-negative results can occur in any type of preventative
examination.

3 Learning about the „plusoptiX S16“ and connecting it
The “plusoptiX S16” is made up of the device with a smiley, which is connected to the cradle
with the device cable.
During a measurement, the “plusoptiX S16” records a series of images. To ensure children
look into the camera during the measurement, the “plusoptiX S16” plays a warble sound.
The speaker, the camera lens and the LEDS needed to light the images are located behind
the black protective screen with the smiley. This smiley helps to keep the child’s attention.
Attention:
If a child is not looking at the camera lens in the middle behind the hexagon
during the measurement, this can lead to a cancellation of the measurement or
incorrect measured values of the visual symmetry. Therefore do not use any
other external fixation aids!
Note:
So that the protective screen does not get dirty, we recommend you do not touch
it. Should the protective screen get dirty, please heed the care instructions in
Chapter 8.

3.2 Integrated interfaces
The cradle has 4 connections:
- LAN connection (RJ45) for incorporation into the practice network
- 12V connection for the medical power supply
- 4 x USB interfaces
- DVI connection for optional connection of a monitor
The four USB interfaces can be used as follows:
- To save the screening reports and import an infographic
- To import patient data
- To export data
- Optional connection of a USB keyboard and USB mouse
3.3 Connecting an external monitor (optional)
The “plusoptiX S16” has a DVI interface to connect an external monitor. This enlarges the
display of the results pages. This allows the results pages to be discussed easily with the
patient.
Connect your monitor with the DVI interface in the cradle of the “plusoptiX S16”. When the
device is mounted on the cradle, the image is shown on the external monitor and the screen
of the “plusoptiX S16” is turned off.
Remove the device from the cradle before the measurement. The screen of the
“plusoptiX S16” is now active and the external monitor is switched off. This avoids the child
being distracted by the picture on the external monitor during the measurement.
After the measurement, replace the device on the cradle. The screen of the “plusoptiX S16”
is now turned off again and the screen of the monitor shows an enlarged view of the results
pages.
3.4 Connecting the USB keyboard and mouse (optional)
To enter data on the “plusoptiX S16”, it is necessary to connect a conventional USB
keyboard. Connect your input device with the USB interface of the “plusoptiX S16”. You can
also connect wireless input devices instead of cabled ones.
A USB keyboard is necessary for:
- inputting and selection of patient data
- entering the password in the WLAN settings
- configuring network settings to connect to the practice network
If a connected mouse or keyboard is not working, please check whether the USB keyboard
or mouse is switched on, connected with the “plusoptiX S16” and whether the batteries are
inserted. If your input device still doesn’t work, this means it is not supported by the drivers
installed in the “plusoptiX S16”. Use input devices from another manufacturer instead in this
case.
Note:
Non-functioning external input devices do not constitute a service or warranty
case!

6 Preparing the measurement area
The measurement is carried out using infrared light, which is also contained in
sunlight and in the light of bulbs and halogen spotlights, for example. This infrared
light is invisible to the human eye and completely safe.
To obtain correct measurement values, it is important to avoid disruptive sources
of infrared light in the examination room. Close curtains, roller blinds and shutters
to block out the sun’s rays.
Turn off all light sources that produce heat. This does not mean that the
examination room should be dark. Cold light sources, such as energy saving bulbs
and neon lights, do not affect the measurement values.
More information about preparing the measurement area can be found in short manual 2 on
our homepage (www.plusoptix.com), under support.
7 Performing measurements
The “plusoptiX S16” measures both eyes at the same time (binocular) in 0.5 seconds from a
distance of one meter. This means that even infants with a short attention span can be
measured from the age of 5 months. The simultaneous measurement of both eyes also
facilitates a reliable comparison of both eyes’ measurement values. More information about
performing a measurement can be found in short manual 2 on our homepage
(www.plusoptix.com), under support.
A measurement can be performed anonymously or by indicating patient data. More
information about entering or retrieving patient data can be found in short manual 4 on our
homepage (www.plusoptix.com), under support.

7.1 Preconditions for a successful measurement
a) The measuring distance is correct
The measuring distance must be between 95 cm and 105 cm. Check whether the
camera image on the screen is in focus. You must be able to see the individual hairs on
the eyelids or the eyelashes clearly on the camera image.
b) The patient is looking at the camera lens
The “plusoptiX S16” and the eyes of the patient must be aligned with one another. The
patient must look at the nose of the smiley face. For this reason, an attention grabbing
warble sound is emitted at the beginning of the measurement.
Note:
The attention span of toddlers is very short. Take advantage of the fact that the
examination room is unknown to the toddler. The attention-grabbing "Warble"
sound in this unknown environment always arouses interest. Avoid lengthy
conversation with parents before the measurement.
Note:
If a child is not looking at the nose of the smiley face during the measurements,
this can cause a termination of the measurement or inaccurate measurement
values of the gaze symmetry. For this reason, do not use any other external
fixation aids!
c) Both of the patient’s pupils should be completely visible
The pupils must not be covered by eyelids, eyelashes or hair, for example. Check
whether both pupils can be seen completely on the screen and whether they are
encircled in green.
d) Both pupil diameters must be between 4 and 8 mm
Note:
If a red error message is displayed, an action recommendation is also displayed
below it. Please read short manual 9 on our homepage (www.plusoptix.com),
under support.

7.2 Selecting the referral criteria
Touch the button to choose the referral criteria (1) in the settings. There are five validated
groups of referral criteria to choose from (see figure 23).
These five groups are called ROC 1, ROC 2, ROC 3, ROC 4 and ROC 5. Each of these
groups defines different, age-dependent thresholds, which lead to a “Refer” preventive test
result. These five groups are shown along a schematic ROC (Receiver Operating
Characteristic) curve. Select a group by touching the relevant button (2) and confirm by
touching the green checkmark (3).
7.3 Starting the measurement and adjusting the “plusoptiX S16”
After you have set the time and date, the home page will be displayed every time you turn
the “plusoptiX S16” on again.
Figure 9: Home screen
Select an age group by touching the appropriate age range (see Figure 4). You must select
the age group (4) in order to ensure the measurement values of the patient are compared
with the correct age-specific referral criteria (see Chapter 7.2 “Selecting the referral criteria”).

Figure 10: Selection of the age group
- Hold the “plusoptiX S16” at eye level to the child, about 1.2 meters away. The measuring
distance is one meter, but it requires practice to correctly estimate this measuring distance
in one go. It is easier to hold the “plusoptiX S16” somewhat further away at the start of the
measurement and then slowly move it towards the child.
- By touching the flashing “GO” button (1) or pressing the trigger, you will start the camera
and a warble sound will be heard. You can now see the camera image on the screen.
Note:
A started measurement can be aborted by touching the screen.
- Adjust the “plusoptiX S16” so that both eyes can be seen on the screen and then slowly
move the “plusoptiX S16” towards the patient until the camera image can be seen in high-
definition on the screen. Firstly, the pupils will be surrounded by white squares (the image
is still very blurred), then with red and finally with green circles (see Figure 11).

Page 16/22
The image is blurry and two red bars will be displayed next to the camera image. As the
measuring distance is too great, you can see the head of the patient virtually in its entirety.
Move the “plusoptiX S16” towards the patient until the camera image can be seen in high-
definition on the screen and both pupils are encircled in green.
The image is blurry and two red bars will be displayed next to the camera image. As the
measuring distance is too small, the eyes can be seen on the screen. Move the “plusoptiX
S16” away from the patient until the camera image can be seen in high-definition on the
screen and both pupils are encircled in green.
The image can be seen in high-definition on the screen, the bars are green and both pupils
are encircled in green. As soon as both pupils are surrounded by a green circle, the line
between the pupils turns green and another warble sound can be heard. The
“plusoptiX S16” is now a metre away from the child and the measurement begins
automatically. A “ping” sound signalises the end of the measurement.
