About this trial

The purpose of this study is to compare the measurements obtained with two different biometers, UNITY Dx and Anterion. In eye care, a biometer is a device that uses laser technology to take highly precise measurements of the eye's internal structures. It is most frequently used to help determine the exact power of the intraocular lens (IOL) needed before cataract removal.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Have healthy, clear corneas for the normal cohort;

Have documented keratoconus for the keratoconus cohort;

Have reported use of daily contact lens use for the contact lens cohort;

Have documented dry eye, consisting of signs and symptoms for the dry eye cohort;

Disqualifiers

Active ocular infection or inflammation;

Unable to fixate due to nystagmus or other eye movement abnormality (e.g., significant strabismus);

Any ocular disease and/or condition that, in the investigator's clinical judgment, may put the subject at significant risk, may compromise study result or may interfere significantly with the subject's participation in the study.

Trial population

Cohorts will be selected from approximately one investigative site located in the United States.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Regression-Based Axial Length (R-AL)

Regression-based Axial Length (R-AL) is the distance from the anterior surface of the cornea to the retina at the back of the eye, measured along the visual axis. R-AL will be measured by the device and reported in microns.
