Ophthalmic Protractor

Ophthalmic Protractors are specialized tools used in ophthalmology for measuring angles and distances within the eye. They are part of the supply class Ophthalmic Instruments, Equipment, and Supplies, which falls under the supply group Medical, Dental, and Veterinary Equipment and Supplies.

These protractors are designed to assist ophthalmologists and optometrists in accurately measuring and assessing various angles and distances related to eye health and vision. They are typically made of durable materials such as stainless steel or plastic and feature clear markings and scales for precise measurements.

Ophthalmic Protractors are commonly used in procedures such as assessing the angle of the anterior chamber of the eye in glaucoma diagnosis, measuring the angle of deviation in strabismus (crossed eyes), and determining the axis of astigmatism in the prescription of corrective lenses.

Overall, Ophthalmic Protractors are essential tools in ophthalmology for ensuring accurate measurements and assessments of various angles and distances within the eye, aiding in the diagnosis and treatment of eye conditions.
