Step 1
Measurement
The autorefractor, lensmeter, or phoropter produces the data.

nexCard
One card. Two technologies.
Reusable refraction data card combining NFC technology for the Nexio ecosystem and a contact smart card fully compatible with NIDEK / Marco Eye Care Card workflows. A single card for both existing Eye Care Card installations and next-generation Nexio connectivity.
How it works
The measurement travels with the card.
nexCard keeps the familiar Eye Care Card gesture and adds Nexio NFC: measurements move from one station to the next without network or cloud.
Step 2
Card writing
nexBox or the instrument writes via NFC or contact chip.
Step 3
Reading
The phoropter, a nexBox, or nexRef reads the card again.
Offline by design.
The card physically carries the data. The workflow stays local: no mandatory cloud and no instrument forced onto the client network.
