Ophthalmometer

Ophthalmometer

The ophthalmometer (also keratometer) is an instrument for measuring the surface curvature of the cornea (lat. Cornea) of the eye, as well as for the determination of the corneal course (keratometry). The measuring device, developed by Hermann von Helmholtz in 1851, allows the measurement of the virtual image and thus a return to the curvature of the reflecting surface. An illuminated object is placed at a known distance and the reflection of the cornea is observed. This measurement method currently applies primarily to the eye optics for the adaptation of contact lenses, whereby the ophthalmometer is increasingly replaced by its further development, the videokeratometer ((video) keratograph). Das Ophthalmometer (auch Keratometer) ist ein Instrument zur Messung der Oberflächenkrümmung der Hornhaut (lat. Cornea) des Auges, sowie zur Bestimmung der Hornhautverläufe (Keratometrie). Das 1851 von Hermann von Helmholtz entwickelte Messgerät erlaubt das Vermessen des virtuellen Bildes und somit einen Rückschluss auf die Krümmung der spiegelnden Fläche. Dabei wird ein beleuchtetes Objekt in einem bekannten Abstand aufgestellt und die Reflexion der Hornhaut beobachtet. Diese Messmethode findet gegenwärtig vorrangig in der Augenoptik bei der Anpassung von Kontaktlinsen Anwendung, wobei das Ophthalmometer vermehrt durch seine Weiterentwicklung, dem Videokeratometer ((Video-)Keratograf) ersetzt wird.
