In order to measure optical biometric characteristics, optical biometer is a non-contact automated modality.
Laser partial coherence interferometry (PCI) and optical low-coherence reflectometry are two frequently used models that use two distinct methodologies (OLCR).
Both methods have the benefit of enabling keratometry in addition to axial length measurement.
The PCI uses a dual-beam 780 nm infrared laser. The corneal surface and the retinal pigment epithelium both reflect both partial beams in this configuration, which places the eye and the photodetector at opposite ends of the interferometer.
If the distance between the beams’ paths is less than the coherence length, interference will happen, and the photodetector will pick up this interference signal.
The device can measure the optical distance between the corneal surface and the retina because the interferometer mirror’s position is known.
It may then calculate the geometric intraocular distance using the refractive indices of the ocular media (cornea, aqueous, lens, and vitreous humour), yielding a resolution of 12 microns.
The Global Optical Biometer market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
The Optical Biometer AL-Scan has been developed by NIDEK CO., LTD., a leader in the design, production, and distribution of ophthalmic equipment worldwide.
Ergonomics, clinical efficacy, and precision were all taken into consideration during the design of the AL-Scan.
In just 10 seconds, the AL-Scan measures six essential parameters for cataract surgery. Axial length, corneal curvature radius, anterior chamber depth, central corneal thickness, white-to-white distance, and pupil size are the measurements in question.
The quick measurement improves patient comfort and clinical effectiveness. With 3-D auto tracking and auto shooting, the AL-Scan gives the operator the most ease, comfort, and precision when taking any measurements.
The AL-Scan can assess eyes with even extensive cataracts because advanced measuring algorithms improve the signal-to-noise ratio by reducing noise and increasing the signal.
The AL-Scan contains an optional built-in ultrasound biometer that enables the assessment of practically any cataractous eye, even those with extremely dense cataracts.
The AL-Scan has eight IOL calculating formulae. The IOL power is automatically determined using its own measured data after the measurement is complete.
For toric intraocular lens implants, a digital protractor is provided to calculate the angle between the line running through a conspicuous vessel and the steepest corneal meridian.
Toric lenses can be precisely aligned in the operating room using a picture of the eye with a digital protractor overlay. One essential tool for ophthalmic surgeons is the AL-Scan.
