LENSMETERS |
 |
| A lensmeter or lensometer is an instrument used by opticians, optometrist and ophthalmologists to determine the power of an existing prescription lens. |
Lensmeters can determine the focal length and axis of any ophthalmic lens be it a single vision, multi-focal or progressive lens. If you are taking new patients with prior prescriptions, or if you need to assess a patient's response to their existing prescription, this kind of ophthalmic instrument could be of great value to your practice. There are manual and automated lensometers in today’s ophthalmic equipment market and medical professionals have found success with both methods. Depending on your practice and methods, you may be considering the most affordable option rather than the option with the most features, but remember, using ophthalmic technology effectively, like automated lensometers could mean managing a higher patient load more efficiently and serving your patients more effectively. If you are considering a lensometer and keratometer, remember that a lensmeter measures how the light is refracted as it passes throught the lens, unlike a keratometer, which measures the curvature by reflecting the light off the suface of a lens. If you have questions about which lensmeter or lensometer will work best in your ophthalmic practice and about keratometers and their role, contact VeatchInstruments.com and we’ll walk you through all of your options.
