The AdaptDx Pro is a simple, fully automated dark adaptometer. It measures dark adaptation speed, which can be used to detect and monitor the progression of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Impaired dark adaptation is 90% sensitive and specific to the presence of AMD. The AdaptDx Pro measures the number of minutes it takes your vision to adjust to darkness, your dark adaptation speed.
