Torrance, California, USA – According to the latest study from MarkWide Research Market for keratometers This industry is expected to continue growing moderately.

An ophthalmometer, sometimes known as a keratometer, is a medical instrument used to measure the curvature of the front surface of the cornea, a part of the eye that accounts for two-thirds of the eye’s optical power, to help prevent vision loss. A keratometer is an instrument that provides a quick and convenient way to measure the diameter of the cornea. This measurement allows the ophthalmologist to assess the volume of the eyeball based on the diameter of the cornea. The prescriptions of the glasses are particularly relevant, because the corneal vertex and the lens vertex should match in order to achieve the best results.

One of the main uses of keratometers is the diagnosis of astigmatism, a condition in which the lens of the eye, or cornea, has an imperfect curvature due to an imperfection in the curvature of the lens of the eye. There are three types of astigmatism that can occur in people: myopic astigmatism, hyperopic astigmatism, and mixed astigmatism, and the majority of people are born with astigmatism or it is caused by either eye injury or disease. It is possible to correct astigmatism with glasses, corrective lenses, as well as refractive surgery if it is a correctable condition. A number of trends have contributed to the positive growth of the global keratometer market in recent years.
