• 500 nanoliters (nL) of tear film needed to perform test
• Can archive 60,000 patient records and is wireless and bluetooth compatible

TearScan 270 MicroAssay System provides real-time Point-Of-Care quantitative results for Lactoferrin and IgE (Immunoglobulin E) tear diagnostic tests. Using the supplied Tear Capture Device, the tear sample is taken from the temporal inferior lid margin of the eye and placed into one of the cassette wells. When the control line appears, the cassette is placed into the TearScan unit where the quantitative results can be printed or uploaded to the practice's EMR.

• Provides a numeric osmolarity value (mOsm/L). The normal range is 300 and below. The higher the number over 300 is an indicator to the severity of ocular surface disease.
• 50 nanoliters (nL) of tear film needed to perform test
• Daily and monthly calibrations must be performed and centers must abide by the CLIA regulations

TearLab Osmolarity System measures the osmolarity of tears using nanoliter (nL) volumes of tear fluid collected directly from the eyelid margin. The system consists of two battery-operated osmolarity test pens, the countertop unit, and a supply of single-use test cards. The countertop unit analyzes the tear fluid samples and displays the results on an LCD screen. The test cards come in individual foil pouches and one is loaded onto each test pen.
