    CALABASAS, CA, January 21, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Micro Medical Devices, Inc. (MMD) is a leading innovator in the delivery of hand-held, battery-operated medical devices to the healthcare and related industries. MMD's products include Immersion capable A-Scans, surgical and non-surgical Pachymeters, and A-Scan & Pachymeter combination devices. These devices deliver a new level of accuracy and functionalities that have amazed many users.

Micro Medical Devices, especially the PalmScan A2000E A-Scan is a device that is being used by the Vision Outreach International, a non-profit organization which has the mission to help those in need within the developing countries. These biometers have been utilized since 2007 in Sierra Leone, Guatemala, El Salvador, and refugee camps on the Thailand/Burmese border with the outreach expanding to many other countries. With the convenience of portability, ease of use and efficiency, now you can transfer data from one corner of the world to the other if needed.

This is what the practitioners at the Vision Outreach International had to say: "As an instrument for use in the developing world I feel the PalmScan is excellent for several reasons. First of all size and weight are factors and PalmScan wins hands down in this area. Versatility to operate with or without a power source is extremely helpful. We at times had to function without electric (the generator was having trouble so the electric was off and on..."TIA"). The PalmScan IOL calculations and information manipulation was very easy once we spent a little time working with it. I taught a tech to do A-scans using the PalmScan and it was very easy and she learned and used it with great ease" -Tom Fisher, Vision Outreach International
