Quick Recap from Biometry

Biometry Course3. Diagnostic Devices


Equipment for Biometry Clinic

๏ Vision Testing๏ Biometer, Optical or Ultrasound๏ Measure K- Reading - Biometry, Auto K, Manual๏ Way of Calculating , Paper, on board calculator,

Internet


Complex Patients and Complex Lenses

๏ Newer Generation Biometers, eg IOL Master 700๏ Immersion Ultrasound, B Scan Biometry๏ Topography, understanding front and back

surface of cornea๏ Useful for Premium IOL and Complex cases๏ Aberrometers, measure visual quality


Busy NHS Clinic

๏ Standard Patient๏ Expect range of ALM to be normal range 22-27๏ Astigmatism under 2?๏ Standard biometer will be quick and accurate for

normal cases


K Readings

๏ Based on formula ๏ KD = n-1/rmm

๏ Can vary instrument to instrument - Centration Pupil or Visual Axis - Area measured Zone or Ring


Curvature

๏ The cornea is not a uniform shape๏ It varies depending on where we measure the K

reading- Auto Keratometer 3-3.3 mm- IOL Master 2.4mm- Pentacam 3mm


K Readings Vary

๏ Where they are taken๏ Are they taken as an average over an area or at

a point๏ Changes in Refractive Index

X X


Visual Axis vs Pupil Centre

๏ Pupil centre is not coincident with the

visual axis.๏ If the difference between them is too

great they may experience problems

with multifocal IOL


Axial Length

๏ Optical ๏ Uses light to bounce off the retina๏ Problems with fixation๏ Have you measured RPE or ILM๏ Modern Biometers use composite

measure


Signal to Noise Ratio

๏ Measure of clarity of the medium measurement

is taken through๏ The higher the noise the more difficult it is to

take and accuracy of measure decreases๏ However Good SNR does not always equal

accurate measurement.๏ Check other eye


Question Time


Case Study

• A colleague calls in a panic. He has implanted

the patient and ended up refractive surprise• PreOp • ALM R23.5 K1 43.15x178 K2 45.76 x 88• ALM L 20.81 K1 47x180 k2 47x90• Implant L 28 SuperLens A const 118 SRK/T• What caused the refractive surprise?• What steps would you take in your

investigation?


Ultrasound

๏ Only used if - Cataract Dense (A scan)- Macular issue or further investigation needed

(B-Scan)- Some biometrists feel immersion biometry is

the most accurate


White to White

๏ Can measure with a ruler, calliper, biometer,

topographer๏ Check for error messages, normally need to be

able to see at least 70% limbus for auto

measurement๏ Why are you measuring WtoW?๏ What type of lens implanting? AC Lens, PIOL?๏ Should you be measuring at sulcus or angle?


White to White

๏ White to White ๏ Angle to Angle๏ Sulcus to Sulcus


Anterior Chamber Depth

measuring?๏ Anatomical -

Average MeasurementsMeasurement Average Normal Range

K Reading 43 Ds 40-47 Ds

CCT 555µm 500-600µm

ACD 3.25mm 3.00-3.75mm


Question Time


Complex Cases

๏ Corneal surface is not regular๏ Need to understand how K readings are

measured


K Readings

๏ Estimation of the curvature of Surface๏ Used to calculate power of IOL๏ Can get different measures taking measure in

different place


Power Distribution

๏ 1 normal 1 ab showing variation


Complex Cases

๏ Use topography/ tomography๏ Image front and back or cornea helpful to avoid

surprise in Toric patients๏ Aberrometry may help understand visual quality,

useful for Multifocal or Toric IOL


Wavefront Basics

๏ Zernike is a way of describing a wavefront as it exits the eye๏ Different instruments measure different things

– Whole Aberrations (Eg OPD III)– Anterior Surface only (Eg Zeiss Atlas)– Anterior and Posterior Cornea (Eg Pentacam)

๏ In cataract we are interested in Anterior and Posterior Cornea

mainly as the rest will be removed with the cataract


Aberrometers

๏ Becoming more common๏ Useful to determine vision๏ Eg Point Spread Function
