IOLMaster — Axial Length Measurement
Results - Example Signal Curves.

• Very good signals (signal-to-noise ratio > 10)
• Several secondary maxima visible (system specific)
• Clear media, correctly fixating patient
• Weak ametropia

• Clear signal (SNR > 2.0)
• Secondary maxima visible
• Relatively clear media

• Valid signal in "Borderline SNR" range of 1.6 ... 2.0
• Steep rise of measuring signal
• Such readings are marked on the display by an exclamation mark and the message "Borderline SNR" appears.

Warning This reading may be used after verification and comparison with other data from this series of measurements.

Maladjustments on the Graph

• Low signal (signal-to-noise ratio 1.6)
• Error message is displayed.
• The measuring signal cannot be clearly distinguished from the noise.

• Unsteady (non fixating) patient
• Strong ametropia
• Dense medial opacity along the visual axis

Repeat the measurement!

Ask the patient to fixate steadily.
