A-Scan ultrasound biometry is routine type of diagnostic test used in ophthalmology. This equipment provides data on the length of the eye, which is a major determinant in common sight disorders. The most common use is to determine eye length for calculation of intraocular lens power. Briefly, the total refractive power of the emetropic eye is approximately 60. Of this power, the cornea provides roughly 40 diopters, and the crystalline lens 20 diopters. When a cataract is removed, the lens is replaced by an artificial lens implant. By measuring both the length of the eye and the power of the cornea (keratometry), a simple formula can be used to calculate the best fit of intraocular lens. There are several different forumlas that can be used depending on the actual characteristics of the eye. The other major use of the A-Scan is to determine the size and ultrasound characteristics of masses in the eye, in order to determine the type of mass. Instruments used in this type of test require direct contact with the cornea, however a non-contact instrument has been reported. Disposable covers, which come in actual contact with the eye, have also been evaluated.
