How the Pentacam works
While rotating around the eye, the Pentacam creates Scheimpflug images of the front
part of the eye through varying axes. The images which this rotation produces are the
basis for calculating height data which is used to extrapolate all other results and to cre-
ate a 3D model.
The entire measuring process takes less than two seconds. Up to 25,000 (HR: 138,000)
genuine height values are measured and analysed. At the same time any eye movement
is recorded, which the 3D model takes into account.
When the PC has received the appropriate data record it calculates a 3D model of the
front part of the eye. The 3D model provides the basis for all subsequent analysis.
The topography of the front and rear surfaces of the cornea and the pachymetry are
calculated and displayed from limbus to limbus for the entire surface of the cornea.
