Can a Pentacam® or Pentacam® HR be modified to a Pentacam® AXL Wave?
No. The Pentacam® AXL Wave has different hardware to the other two models. Thus they cannot be modified to the AXL Wave.
Can the Pentacam® AXL Wave measure axial length in mature, very dense cataracts?
Extremely dense cataract still sometimes proves difficult to measure axial length with the Pentacam® AXL Wave.
Other biometers on the market can detect the fovea during measurement. How does the Pentacam® AXL Wave determine it is in line with the fovea to start a measurement?
The first Purkinje image is used as reference to initiate the automatic release of a measurement when using the Pentacam® AXL Wave, unless detected – it will not start the examination process. If the first Purkinje image is detected by ...
How does Pentacam® AXL Wave measure axial length?
Axial length with the Pentacam® AXL Wave is measured using optical (partial optical coherence interferometry) biometry.
