CORNEAL TOPOGRAPHY + IOL BIOMETER
Eye Measurements
Corneal Topography and IOL Biometer are two non-invasive scans that measure your eye in fine detail, so your ophthalmologist can plan with precision.
ABOUT THE SCANS
What are Eye Measurements?
One scan maps the surface of your cornea. The other measures your eye for the right lens.
Used together, they give your ophthalmologist the detailed information needed to plan treatment and procedures more precisely.
THE SCANS ARE
Painless
Non-invasive
No contact with the eye
THE TWO SCANS
Corneal Topography + IOL Biometer
Corneal Topography
A scan that creates a detailed map of the cornea’s shape, curvature and surface.
It is like a 3D map of the front surface of the eye, helping identify subtle irregularities that may not be detected during a routine eye examination.

A detailed measurement of your eye used to calculate the right power of the artificial lens (IOL) for cataract surgery.
It measures the length of the eye and curvature of the cornea.

When is Corneal Topography useful?
Corneal Topography is particularly useful for:
Detecting and monitoring keratoconus
Identifying corneal irregularities and ectasia
Assessing suitability for LASIK, PRK and other refractive procedures
Contact lens fitting, especially specialised lenses
Evaluating the cornea before and after certain eye procedures
Monitoring changes in corneal shape over time
WHY IT MATTERS
Why are they important?
Accurate mapping of the cornea helps your ophthalmologist diagnose corneal conditions early, assess treatment options and plan procedures more precisely.
Accurate biometry is an essential part of cataract surgery planning and helps your ophthalmologist aim for the desired vision after surgery.
