Customizing Eye
Types
Overview The Accutome A-Scan Plus not only allows you to create
and store custom eye types, you can also customize eye
types on-the-fly for an individual patient.
Patient Customization
If you have a patient with a unique situation, you can
specify the eye type, materials, and velocities for either
the OD or OS while performing live measurements. A
Custom Eye Type is linked to a patient eye, and is not a
machine setting available for other patients.
All on-the-fly customization is performed at the
Customize Eye Type Screen. Customization features
include:
Creating a new OD/OS eye type
Changing/creating AC material and velocity for
new eye type
Changing/creating Lens material and velocity
for new eye type
Changing/creating Vitreous material and
velocity for new eye type
*Note: An eye type is considered 'custom' if its definition, as
displayed on the Customize Eye Type Screen, does
not match an eye type definition displayed in the Eye
Types Screen. This will occur if you customize the
eye type directly. An eye type will be displayed as
custom if its definition is permanently changed on
the Eye Types screen and the current patient's eye
type no longer matches. If you change the Eye Type
definition on the Eye Type screen, and you wish to
use that definition for the current patient, reselect the
eye type from the Measure Screen.
