Hans Heiss HRK-9900 — Brand New Autorefractor Keratometer with Touchscreen and IOL Calculation

The National Library of Medicine confirms that modern autorefractometers demonstrate strong agreement with subjective refraction in clinical settings, supporting their use as a reliable starting point for the refraction workup.
Why Practices Choose the Hans Heiss HRK-9900
- Wide measurement range — sphere from −25 D to +22 D captures the full spectrum of ametropia, including high myopes and post-surgical hyperopes requiring serial monitoring.
- Peripheral keratometry — the HRK-9900 measures peripheral corneal curvatures using fixation lamps at off-axis positions, giving contact lens fitters and corneal specialists curvature data beyond the central 3 mm zone.
- IOL power calculation mode — built-in axial length and keratometry integration supports pre-surgical planning, reducing the need to transfer measurements to separate calculation software.
- Freeze function for diameter measurement — captures a corneal, pupil, or contact lens diameter measurement in real time, useful for contact lens fitting and documentation.
- 90° tilting color LCD touchscreen — ergonomic display adjusts for seated or standing examiners; the touchscreen interface keeps all controls accessible without reaching across the instrument.
- Motorized chinrest — motor-driven vertical adjustment aligns patients faster than manual cranks, cutting per-patient setup time in high-volume lanes.
- Built-in thermal printer with auto-cutter — prints a complete refraction and keratometry report at the end of each exam; the auto-cutter delivers a clean slip without tearing.
- USB & RS-232 connectivity — integrates with EMR systems and optical dispensing software; USB port ensures forward compatibility as practice networks evolve.
Clinical Applications
- Routine refraction workup — objective starting point for subjective refinement, reducing chair time for both patient and examiner in general optometry and ophthalmology.
- Pre-surgical evaluation — keratometry and IOL calculation mode support cataract pre-op and refractive surgery screening workflows.
- Contact lens fitting — peripheral keratometry and freeze-diameter function give fitters the data needed to select base curve, diameter, and lens type without additional instrumentation.
- Pediatric and school-age screening — fast, non-invasive measurement cycle is well-tolerated by younger patients; wide sphere range captures both latent hyperopia and progressive myopia.
- Post-surgical monitoring — tracks keratometry stability and residual refractive error after LASIK, PRK, or cataract extraction over follow-up visits.
Who This Is For
- General ophthalmology and optometry practices seeking a new, fully-warranted autorefractor keratometer at a price well below European or Japanese brands of comparable specification.
- Refractive surgery centers requiring IOL calculation capability and keratometry data in a single streamlined workflow.
- Contact lens specialty practices that need peripheral keratometry and diameter measurement without the cost of a topographer.
- High-volume multi-provider clinics where the motorized chinrest, touchscreen controls, and fast auto-printer meaningfully reduce per-patient lane time.
