Eye Scanning – Nidek A-Scan at Kataria Eye and ENT Hospital

At Kataria Eye and ENT Hospital, Jalandhar, we are committed to offering the latest and most advanced eye care technologies. Among our cutting-edge tools is the Nidek A-Scan, a highly accurate and reliable diagnostic tool that plays a crucial role in eye care, especially for patients considering cataract surgery or dealing with complex vision issues.

What is Nidek A-Scan?

The Nidek A-Scan is an advanced ultrasound device used to measure the length of the eye, particularly the distance from the cornea to the retina. This information is essential for determining the appropriate power of an intraocular lens (IOL) that is implanted during cataract surgery.

Accurate eye measurements are critical for successful surgical outcomes, ensuring that patients achieve their optimal visual results. With Nidek’s state-of-the-art technology, the A-Scan provides high precision, making it one of the most trusted devices in ophthalmology.

How Does Nidek A-Scan Work?

The A-Scan operates using sound waves that are transmitted through the eye. These waves are reflected back by different eye structures, and the device calculates measurements based on the time it takes for the waves to return. The process is painless, quick, and non-invasive, ensuring comfort for our patients during the scan.

Key Features and Benefits of Nidek A-Scan:

• High Accuracy: The Nidek A-Scan provides highly accurate eye measurements, ensuring the best possible results, especially for IOL power calculation in cataract surgery.
• Quick and Comfortable: The procedure is quick, taking only a few minutes, and is completely non-invasive, making it comfortable for patients of all ages.
• Essential for Cataract Surgery: Accurate measurements of the eye are essential for achieving optimal vision after cataract surgery. The Nidek A-Scan ensures that the correct lens power is selected for each patient.
• Reliable and Safe: This state-of-the-art equipment is a standard in ophthalmology clinics worldwide and is known for its safety and reliability.

When is an A-Scan Recommended?

• Cataract Surgery: One of the most common uses of the Nidek A-Scan is for pre-operative planning of cataract surgery. Precise eye measurements help your eye surgeon choose the correct intraocular lens (IOL) to restore your vision.
• Axial Length Measurement: It is also used to measure the axial length of the eye for other diagnostic purposes, such as monitoring eye growth in certain eye conditions.
• Other Eye Conditions: If you have an eye condition that may affect the shape or structure of your eye, your doctor may recommend an A-Scan as part of your diagnostic assessment.
