AdaptDx Pro Dark Adaptation Tester

Product Description:

The AdaptDx Pro is a portable dark adaptation tester that measures the speed of dark adaptation. Impaired dark adaptation indicates rod-mediated retinal dysfunction has occurred prior to structural damage. Testing with this device provides functional insights beyond standard imaging examinations, serving as an objective assessment of overall retinal health. Dark adaptation refers to the eye's process of adjusting to low-light conditions after exposure to bright light. It involves the regeneration of photopigments (primarily rhodopsin) in retinal rod cells, which are more sensitive to dim light than cone cells. During this process, the pupil dilates to allow more light into the eye, enhancing rod cell responsiveness and gradually improving vision in darkness over time.
