Corneal topography is a medical imaging technique used to measure the curvature of the cornea, the transparent outer layer of the eye. It is used to diagnose and monitor a variety of eye conditions, such as astigmatism, keratoconus, and dry eye. The technique involves the use of a specialized camera to capture a detailed map of the cornea, which is then analyzed to determine the shape and curvature of the eye.
Corneal topography is a rapidly growing market within the medical imaging industry. It is used in a variety of clinical settings, from ophthalmology to optometry, and is increasingly being used to diagnose and monitor a wide range of eye conditions. The technology is also being used to improve the accuracy of refractive surgery, such as LASIK, and to monitor the progress of contact lens fitting.
Some of the major companies in the corneal topography market include Carl Zeiss Meditec, Topcon Corporation, NIDEK Co., Ltd., Optovue, Inc., and Kowa Company, Ltd. Show Less Read more
