Exhibiting next-generation vision care solutions at the 58th Japanese Ocular Inflammation Society (Foursome 2025)
—Exhibiting a VR-based Software as a Medical Device (SaMD) for pediatric amblyopia training and the smartphone app-based dry eye diagnostic support SaMD, Dry Eye Checker (both unapproved in Japan)—
At the 58th Japanese Ocular Inflammation Society Meeting (Foursome 2025), held at the PACIFICO Yokohama Conference Center, we will exhibit next-generation visual care solutions designed with the future of ophthalmic care in mind.
Exhibition Highlights
1) VR-based Software as a Medical Device for pediatric amblyopia training (unapproved in Japan)
The medical device being exhibited this time is a program for training pediatric amblyopia through a game experience in virtual reality. It adopts a mechanism that naturally engages children while they have fun, and is expected not only to improve therapeutic outcomes through continuous training but also to reduce the psychological and time burden on parents and guardians.
Key features
– Enables stereoscopic vision training utilizing eye-hand coordination
– A usage-time recording function enables development of individualized, optimized treatment plans
– Visualization of training content and outcomes expands the potential for application in clinical settings
*This product is exhibited for informational purposes only; we are not accepting sales or reservations.
2) Smartphone app-based dry eye diagnostic support SaMD, “Dry Eye Checker,” which allows easy evaluation of dry eye status via smartphone (unapproved in Japan)
“Dry Eye Checker,” a smartphone app-based dry eye diagnostic support SaMD, is an application that provides diagnostic support for dry eye on a smartphone by measuring maximum eye-opening time and entering a simple questionnaire. It is expected to be used as a tool to support early diagnostic assistance and monitoring of dry eye in ophthalmic practice, while reducing the burden on both physicians and patients.
We are currently advancing development with the goal of creating the first SaMD in ophthalmology.
Key features
– Blink detection using the smartphone camera (measurement of maximum eye-opening time)
– Recording subjective symptoms using a dry eye disease-specific questionnaire
– Data-based algorithmic diagnostic support for dry eye
*This app is a prototype under development and is being exhibited for informational purposes.
Next-generation ophthalmic care support: InnoJin’s challenge
Through this exhibition, we aim to provide highly convenient and practical medical solutions for healthcare institutions and patients alike.
Going forward, we will further strengthen collaboration with clinical settings, promote development based on scientific evidence, and work toward realizing more reliable diagnostic and training support tools.
If you attend, please be sure to stop by the InnoJin booth.
You can experience next-generation ophthalmic training programs and diagnostic support technologies firsthand.
