Its robust design, user-friendly interface, and reliable performance make it an indispensable tool for modern eye care specialists.
Key Features & Technical Specifications
1. Core Measurement Capabilities:
-
Axial Length (AL):Â Precisely measures the length from the cornea to the retina, a critical parameter for IOL power calculation.
-
Anterior Chamber Depth (ACD):Â Measures the depth of the space between the cornea and the iris.
-
Lens Thickness (LT):Â Provides the thickness of the natural crystalline lens.
-
Central Corneal Thickness (Pachymetry):Â Measures the thickness of the cornea, vital for glaucoma diagnosis and management, and pre-LASIK screening.
2. Advanced Technology & Performance:
-
High-Frequency Ultrasound:Â Utilizes reliable and proven ultrasound technology for consistent and accurate biometric data.
-
High Resolution:Â Offers micron-level precision for all measurements, ensuring reliable surgical outcomes.
-
Multiple IOL Formulas:Â Pre-loaded with all major IOL calculation formulas (e.g., SRK/T, Hoffer Q, Holladay, Haigis) to suit diverse patient demographics and surgeon preference.
-
Automatic & Manual Modes:Â Allows for both automated measurement for efficiency and manual mode for complex cases requiring clinician expertise.
3. User Interface & Operation:
-
Intuitive Software:Â Features a user-friendly interface with a clear, high-resolution display for easy reading of results and graphs.
-
Integrated Keyboard & Touchpad:Â For easy data entry and navigation.
-
Comprehensive Patient Database:Â Allows for storage, retrieval, and management of patient records directly on the device.
4. Design & Build:
-
Compact and Robust:Â Designed to save space in the clinical setting while being durable for long-term use.
-
Ergonomic Probe:Â Lightweight and easy-to-maneuver probe for patient comfort and operator ease.
-
Mobile Stand:Â Often comes with a stable, movable cart for flexible positioning within the practice.
Primary Applications & Uses
