| Summary: |
OLCR pachymeter is a new
non-contact instrument for corneal thickness measurement.
The interferometric technique is highly precise with
reproducibility of 1 µm. Additionally to this, the
device contains a programme that corrects previously
measured tonometry readings according to the determined
corneal thickness. In the article principles and the
technique of examination with the OLCR pachymeter are
presented. |
