INTRODUCTION OF BIOMETRY:
Biometry is a clinical procedure used to...
i. Measure Axial length for IOL power calculation
ii. Monitoring congenital glaucoma, myopia & nanophthalmos
iii. measure intra-ocular parameters like: AC depth. lens thickness etc
Example:
i. IOL master (Optical)
ii. Alcon Ocuscan (Ultrasonic)
Indication:
i. Measure Axial length for IOL power calculation
ii. Monitoring congenital glaucoma
iii. Phthisis bulbi
iv. Nanophthalmos
v. Measuring Intra-ocular parameter:
• Anterior chamber depth
• Lens thickness
