This Sources Sought Notice is for informational and planning purposes only and shall not be construed as a solicitation or as an obligation or commitment by the Government at this time. This notice is intended strictly for market research. The purpose of this Sources Sought notice is to determine interest and capability of potential qualifications of a Service Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) and a Veteran Owned Small Business (VOSB) firms relative to the North American Industry Classification Code (NAICS) 333314.The Department of Veteran's Affairs is seeking small business manufacturer or distributors of small business manufacturers, of functionally equivalent equipment to all the following: This equipment is required to provide full Eye Exams and is currently used in the Eye Center & CBOC eye lanes. The OCT is to perform Fluorescein angiography, Indocyanine green angiography, autofluorescence, color photography, and Optical Coherence Tomophraphy simultaneously of the patient's eye. Providing multi-modality imaging including 3-Dimensional and video images in one piece of equipment performing spectral domain Optical Coherence Tomopraphy, confocal laser scanning, and blue laser autofluorescense. This combination of three separate pieces of equipment streamlines the testing required and thereby reducing Veteran wait time in clinic as well as the number of return visits to complete all required testing.



The Visucam is to photograph through pupils as small as 3.3mm. Superior patient comfort, more efficient workflow and improved eye care.



The HFA3 is utilized for glaucoma diagnostics and management. This exact equipment has already been reviewed by Biomed when purchased for the Eye Center eye lanes.

All start up supplies must be compatible with the purchased system.

Fixation Control

o Video eye monitor

o Heijl-Krakau blind spot monitor

o Gaze Tracking

o Head Tracking

o Vertex Monitoring

Visual Field Indexâ„¢: Summary measurement of the patient's visual field status,

expressed as a percent of a normal age-adjusted visual field.

Liquid Trial Lensâ„¢: Using Liquid pressure, delivers each patient's refractive

correction. Available correction range is -8 to +8 diopters. Spherical correction

only. Liquid Trial Lens available in model 860 only.

Smart Touch interface: Touch screen interface allows for a more efficient

workflow

RelEye: The RelEye fixation monitoring system allows for systematic and pin

point fixation inspection. The HFA 3 captures and keeps the image of the eye

during the testing and just after, prior to the Result Review Screen. RelEye

cannot be viewed on the HFA 3 after terminating the test. Using the HFA 3,

RelEye is also available in FORUM Glaucoma Workplace (minimum version

2.0.3). Only FORUM can keep the RelEye data stored for future usage for

exporting exams.

Guided Progression Analysis (GPA): GPA allows the doctor to compare visual

field status and progression to data collected from glaucoma subjects. GPA

provides statistically significant change as well as rate of change, and predict

future vision quality.

Connectivity: For comprehensive connectivity the HFA 3 can be connected to

FORUM (minimum version 3.2) with FORUM Glaucoma Workplace (minimum

version 2.0.3). DICOM conformant as per the DICOM Conformant Statement,

available at

http://www.zeiss.com/meditec/en_us/products---solutions/ophthalmology-optome

try/dicom.html

HFA 3 also supports common file folder sharing used by most Electronic Medical

Record Systems (EMR).

SITATM (Swedish Interactive Threshold Algorithm): A patented algorithm for fast and accurate visual field threshold measurements; it is the most commonly used test strategy and incorporates patient responses in real time.

SITA database: The SITA normative database contains normative data for SITA

Standard and SITA Fast 30-2, 24-2 and 10-2 threshold visual field test results

from healthy subjects aged 17 to 89.

SITA-SWAPâ„¢ / Blue-Yellow Perimetry: Replaces the Full Threshold and

FastPac strategies for testing SWAP visual fields due to the much shorter test

times available when utilizing SITA SWAP

STATPACâ„¢: It is a software package using normative values and patient data to

perform statistically analysis to help interpret test data. STATPAC is the

software, normative data and statistical analysis in HFA.

Kinetic Testing: In kinetic testing, light stimulus of fixed characteristics is

moved into the visual field from a non-seeing area, until it is detected by the

patient. Typically, the stimulus is brought toward the center from several

directions and the operator marks the location at which the patient first detects

the stimulus (threshold point). The HFA 3 provides a kinetic graphical interface

with full 180º testing range.

Glaucoma Hemifield Test (GHT): Compares points in the superior and inferior

Hemifield to provide analysis of test results. On 24-2 and 30-2 tests, the GHT

evaluates five zones in the superior field and compares these zones to their

mirrored zones in the inferior field. The GHT evaluates the severity of disturbed

points in each zone pair, relative to its normal database.

Legacy data: patient legacy data can be transferred from the HFA II and HFA II-i

to the HFA 3.
