The OCULUS Pentacam AXL Tomography and Optical Biometry is a systematic enhancement of the time-tested Pentacam HR technology. In addition to anterior segment tomography, the original function of its predecessor, the Pentacam AXL has integrated axial length measurement, a feature which allows you to make accurate IOL calculations. All using one device with one measurement procedure and reliable Pentacam software
OCULUS Pentacam AXLTomography and Optical Biometry is Two Devices in One
Once measurements are complete, the relevant data including the axial length, K values, anterior chamber depth and corneal diameter are automatically transferred to the IOL calculation software. This eliminates manual processing errors.
The OCULUS Pentacam AXL Corneal Analyzer is a high-resolution, high-speed, and highly accurate corneal topographer designed for comprehensive examination and analysis of the anterior eye segment, particularly useful for cataract surgery planning and refractive surgery. It uses a combination of Scheimpflug photography and Placido topography to create a detailed map of the cornea.
Multi-functionality: The Pentacam AXL is a multifunctional device that not only provides detailed corneal topography but also includes a comprehensive anterior segment analysis and measurement. The device can be used for a wide range of applications, including corneal topography, cataract surgery planning, refractive surgery planning, and diagnosing various eye conditions.
Technology: It utilizes Scheimpflug imaging technology for analyzing the anterior segment of the eye, which includes the cornea, anterior chamber, and lens. This imaging technology provides high-resolution images and precise biometric data which is superior to other optical-based systems. A full scan of the anterior segment takes just a few seconds, is non-invasive and non-contact, which is comfortable for the patient and efficient for the clinic.
Anterior Segment Tomography and Axial Length Measurement: This is one of the main features that set the Pentacam AXL apart. It provides precise axial length measurements, which is crucial for cataract and refractive surgery planning, especially for IOL power calculation. It also provides both topographic (surface) and tomographic (volume) information about the cornea, offering a detailed picture of the cornea’s structure and possible deformities or abnormalities.
Comprehensive Software Analysis: The accompanying software provides comprehensive data analysis including anterior and posterior elevation maps, pachymetry maps, chamber depth analysis, and lens density measurements. It generates various maps and images, making interpretation easy for the surgeon.
