Ophthalmic Optical Biometer
An ophthalmic optical biometer is a diagnostic instrument used in eye care to measure important structures within the eye. It uses light-based technology to determine parameters such as the length of the eye, the curvature of the cornea, and the depth of the anterior chamber. These measurements are especially important before procedures like cataract surgery, where precise calculations are needed to select the correct intraocular lens. Optical biometers provide highly accurate results without touching the eye, which makes the examination comfortable for patients and efficient for eye specialists.
