SLIT LAMP

A slit lamp is a microscope with a bright light used during an eye exam. It gives your ophthalmologist a closer look at the different structures at the front of the eye and inside the eye. It’s a key tool in determining the health of your eyes and detecting eye disease.

OPTICAL BIOMETRY

Optical biometry explained Optical biometry is the current standard for intraocular lens (IOL) power calculations in clinical practice. Optical biometry is a highly accurate non-invasive automated method for measuring the anatomical characteristics of the eye.

SPECULAR MICROSCOPE

The specular microscope is an optical reflection microscope where a slit of light is focussed on the corneal endothelial surface and specularly (mirror-like) reflected light rays are focussed onto film plane for viewing on a real-time monitor. By virtue of its design, the specular microscope does not allow non specular light rays to be observed.
