iCare has announced that the new version of the iCare Maia microperimeter is in final stages of preparation and will be ready for commercial launch in the next few months.
The company said the new iCare Maia microperimeter has a renewed hardware platform with fully automated operations and a 15” multi-touch display.
An auto-alignment capability keeps the device aligned with the eye under exam, compensating for head and eye movements throughout the test. The high correlation between structure and function is achieved through the introduction of the 60° TrueColor field of view.
“iCare Maia retains all the key elements that made it the gold standard in microperimetry technology, the introduction of the 60° TrueColor imaging capabilities brings the new Maia to the next level of structure-function correlation in microperimetry” said Daniele Mantovano, iCare’s Global Business Line Director.

“We strongly believe in microperimetry and its usefulness in the research ophthalmic segment, and we have been intensely working on this project since the discontinuation of the previous Maia model.”
The new iCare Maia also has an onboard grid editor allowing the creation of customised test patterns, ensuring higher flexibility for the execution of custom protocols for patient-specific testing.
Clinical validation indicates full interchangeability with the previous Maia generation, with equivalent sensitivity results in mesopic testing. The new iCare Maia can import data from the previous model and use it as a reference for follow-up exams, guaranteeing continuity with historical clinical data.
