June is Cataract Awareness Month

Did you know cataracts are the leading cause of remediable blindness worldwide?

Ophthalmic ultrasound biometry plays a critical role in cataract surgery by providing accurate measurements of the eye's axial length and other anatomical parameters.

These measurements are crucial for selecting the appropriate intraocular lens (IOL) power and achieving optimal refractive outcomes.

Using Sonomed Escalon ultrasound to precisely measure the length of the eye, surgeons can calculate the power of the IOL needed to restore the patient's vision.

This information helps minimize postoperative refractive errors, such as nearsightedness or farsightedness, and ensures that the patient achieves the desired visual acuity after surgery.

Sonomed Escalon Ophthalmic ultrasound biometer enhances the predictability and precision of cataract surgery, improving patient satisfaction and reducing the need for additional corrective measures postoperatively.

Together, we can make a vision of a brighter future a reality.
