PIROP - Model A+B+CCT - Ophthalmic Scanner
PIROP user’s interface based on touch screen technology makes operation easy and user-friendly. The touch screen can be also operated not only with fingers, but also using the enclosed stylus to keep it clean.
PIROP – state-of-the-art ophthalmic ultrasonic device for Biometry , Visualization and Pachymetry of eyeballs (A-Scan + B-Scan + CCT- Pachymeter) – modified version.
A-SCAN – Ocular Lens biometrics
Digital ‘A-scan’ tool for ophthalmology, biometry and lens power calculation of intra-ocular implants.
B-SCAN – Eye examination
Modern ‘B-scan’ tool for ophthalmology, interior eyeball imaging, retina, optical nerve …
CCT- PACHYMETER (P-SCAN) – Ocular cornea biometrics
Up-to-date ultrasonic pachymeter used to measure the thickness of the eye’s cornea (glaucoma screening and refractive surgery), with a very high sampling frequency –400MHz (a significant increase in measurement accuracy – ≤ 2 μm). Corneal pachymetry is an important test in the early detection of glaucoma (central corneal thickness CCT), and it help also surgeons by providing graphical surgical plans to eliminate corneal astigmatism.
- Complete and quick biometry:
- eye axial length (AXL)
