Now, we are excited to announce another step forward for our clinic: the OCULUS Keratograph® 5.
A New Way to Treat Dry Eye Disease
The OCULUS Keratograph® 5 is a groundbreaking piece of imaging equipment that changes the way we diagnose and treat dry eye disease. This brand new machine is among the latest advances in optometry, it is especially useful for testing, diagnosing, and treating dry eye disease. It offers the following benefits over more complicated alternatives:
- Non-invasive way to take high resolution images
- Offers a wide variety of different tests and software analysis
- Gives patients more insight into their conditions and needs
What is the OCULUS Keratograph® 5?
The OCULUS Keratograph® 5M integrates a high definition camera, keratometer, and corneal topographer into one seamless and state-of-the-art imaging machine. Surface eye diseases are no match for this precise and innovative tool, which integrates with computer technology to create detailed, full-color digital images of your eye.
If you have dry eye disease, we will use the round camera lens to examine your Meibomian glands (also called your tarsal glands). These glands produce the oil layer of your tear film, which keeps them from drying out and evaporating. The Keratograph allows us to test the break-up time of your tear film, the height of your tear meniscus, and the condition of your eye’s lipid layer.
What You Should Know
Light-emitting diodes make it possible to create these highly complex images, while thousands of measuring points make our diagnoses more accurate and precise than ever. The Keratograph even relies on an infrared ring to prevent the involuntary secretions associated with bright lights and glares. Together, these tools work to create precise and useful records of the exact shape, size, function, and abnormalities of your eyes.
