Core offering

TOMEY GmbH develops, manufactures, and sells precision ophthalmic diagnostic instruments for eye examinations across cataract and cornea, glaucoma and retina, and refraction applications. The portfolio is sold to ophthalmic practices and optician shops worldwide, covering advanced imaging (OCT, optical biometry, specular microscopy, corneal topography), lens analysis, tonometry, refraction workstations, and electronic examination furniture. Products are developed and manufactured in Germany.

Product overview

TOMEY GmbH offers a comprehensive portfolio of ophthalmic diagnostic instruments for eye examinations across four main categories: Cataract & Cornea, Glaucoma & Retina, Refraction, and Refraction Units & Furniture. The product range includes advanced imaging systems like the CASIA2 OCT and OA-2000 Optical Biometer, multifunction units combining multiple examination capabilities such as the MR-6000, and a complete line of refraction equipment including auto ref-keratometers (RC-900, RC-5000), lensmeters (TL-7100), digital and manual phoropters (TAP-2000, TMP-2000). The portfolio extends to corneal diagnostics with the TMS-4N topographer and EM-4000 specular microscope, ultrasound systems including the UD-800 modular A/B-scan, and supporting furniture like electronic lift tables. The newly announced LENY® Lens Analyser represents the future of lens analysis with fully automated measurement in under 10 seconds.
