Corneal topography is also referred to as photokeratoscopy and videokeratoscopy. It is a technique that is used to map the curved surface of the cornea. This can help measure the quality of vision and also assist in LASIK surgery and the fitting of contact lenses. This procedure is known as non-invasive and painless to the patient. The test produces a series of color-coded maps that are used to diagnose and manage various eye conditions.
Corneal topography is known to produce a detailed, visual description of the shape and power of the cornea. This type of analysis provides with very fine details regarding the condition of the corneal surface. These details are especially used to diagnose, monitor, and treat various types of eye conditions. They are also used in fitting contact lenses and for planning surgery, including laser vision correction. For laser vision correction the corneal topography map is used in conjunction with other tests to determine exactly how much corneal tissue will be removed to correct vision and with what ablation pattern.
The increasing technological advancements in corneal topographers is expected to drive the market over the forecast period. The developed advanced devices help to address the unmet needs and offer a wide range of advantages to patients. Advancements in technology have led to corneal topography devices with enhanced accuracy and precision in mapping the corneal surface.
