The Tomey AL-3000 is designed for fast, easy operation. Equipped with audio-assisted measurement capabilities, it emits a series of beeps as soon as the probe is aligned and the measurement is recorded. For operator convenience, measurements may be taken automatically (hand-held or using a chin rest) or by pressing a foot switch.
The AL-3000 measures axial lengths ranging from 15-40 mm with an accuracy of +/- 0.1 mm and a resolution of 0.01 mm. Eye modes include normal, aphakic, pseudophakic and dense cataract. For maximum precision, the AL-3000 calculates the average value of up to 10 measurements. Measurements may be acquired in either contact or immersion mode.
The AL-3000 calculates IOL power using five of the most popular formulas: SRK II, SRK/T, Holladay, Haigis Standard and Haigis Optimized. The AL-3000 can also display up to three lens constants and the corresponding IOL powers, enabling surgeons to develop effective strategies for future surgical procedures.
Using the pachymetry probe, the AL-3000 measures corneal thickness in either single or multiple mode. Up to 25 locations across the cornea can be mapped either in standard locations or as a customizable map.
The AL-3000’s high-resolution touchscreen display provides a simple user interface and allows fast, easy access to all available programs. Detailed waveforms may be viewed, patient data may be stored and printouts may be obtained.
The AL-3000 provides a PC memory card that stores data for up to 237 patients. Additional memory cards are available from Tomey to expand storage capacity. |
