What is Biometry?
The full name of the eye test is Interferometry Biometry which is designed to measure the spaces within the eye such as, corneal curvature, corneal thickness, corneal diameter, anterior chamber depth and axial length.
Diagnostic Eye Tests
It is important to allow enough time in your schedule for a thorough eye examination. Typically, these can take 1 to 2 hours but may be longer if you require special testing. In all cases, please refer to our Clinic Guidelines
